construction industry

Digital transformation in
1 of 3
the construction industry
Building Information Modelling
What does it mean in 2017?
The industry has vast potential for improving
productivity and efficiency, thanks to
digitalization, innovative technologies and new
construction techniques

BIM plays a central role here, as it is the key enabler
of and facilitator for many other technologies: the
building of a bridge, for example, can be greatly
facilitated by combining robotics and 3D printing via
a parametrically designed 3D model.

The Challenge
The Challenge
Projects are increasingly procured with overly comprehensive or

inadequately unclear information requirements either:
I require EIR, BEP, PIM, CDE and MIDP!

or
Give me a full BIM model at LOD1000!
The Challenge
Individuals and project teams
are required to respond to
multiple local and international
standards and complex data
exchange scenarios
Level of Development, Level of Accuracy, Level of Information, Level of

Information Detail, Level of Model Definition, Level of Model Detail, etc.

BIM Chaos...thousands of possible information requirements and deliverables!
an ever changing landscape
The Challenge
BIM is transforming the roles of those who design, deliver, operate, and
maintain all types of buildings and structures
Defining a role through formal one-off qualification or static certification is

no longer enough
Every definition of a BIM/Project Manager that was drafted 5 years ago,

must be re-written this year. What will be defined this year must be
redefined within 3 years; the pace of transformation is unrelenting.
Theres a dire need to develop digital-transformation-
ready roles that are able to respond to rapid change, and
to meet the evolving information management
requirements of construction projects!

Clients/Employers can define their BIM
project requirements by selecting Model
Uses (expected outcomes from using BIM)
Wheel (A) represents all Model Uses

selected by the client; each blue shape
representing a single Model Use
The project team can then be assessed
against the selected Model Uses using a
variety of metrics example:
the 5-level Competency Index
Wheel (B) provides a summary of the

teams ability relative to each Model
Use selected by the client
VS
requirements abilities (capability/maturity)

as defined by the client in Italian established through assessment
Focus on the Individuals:
Who is the Information Manager?
a UK perspective
The topic of Information Management and the role of
Information Manager are discussed in a number of (UK)
documents:
1. BIM Protocol; CIC First Edition 2013
2. CIC Outline Scope of Services for the role of
Information Management
3. PAS 1192-2:2013 Specification for Information
Management for the Capital/Delivery Phase
of Construction Projects using BIM
7.5.1The information manager has a role in facilitating the
management of the federated model & the production of project
outputs.
The information manager is also responsible for managing the
operation, standards and culture of the Common Data
Environment.
The information manager is not a stand-alone role and is expected
to shift from design team to contractor prior to start on site.
Under the BIM Protocol, a client is obliged to appoint an
information manager at all project stages.
(PAS1192-2:2013, p. 17)
The Information Manager:
What Competencies are Needed?
1. the BIM Protocol; CIC First Edition 2013
Principle Responsibilities:
Managing the processes and procedures for information exchange on projects;

Initiating and implementing the Project Information Plan and Asset Information Plan;
Assisting in preparation of Project Outputs, such as Data Drops [information exchanges]; and
Implementation of the BIM Protocol, including the updating of the MPDT.
2. CIC Outline Scope of Services for the role of Information Management

maintenance standards for the Information Model
Receive information into the Information Model in compliance with
agreed processes and procedures; validate compliance with information
requirements and advise on non-compliance
Maintain the Information Model to meet integrity and security
standards in compliance with the Employers Information Requirements
Manage Common Data Environment processes and procedures,
validate compliance and advise on non-compliance
Responsibilities Project Information Management (2 of 4) :
Initiate, agree and implement the Project Information Plan and Asset
Information Plan covering information structure across roles and (all levels
of) the supply chain as to meet Employer Information Requirements and
(satisfy) project team resources
(Responsible for the Level of Information Detail) required for specific Project
Outputs e.g. Planning, Procurement, FM Procurement
(Responsible for the) process for incorporating as-constructed, testing,
validation and commissioning information
Enable integration of information within the Project Team and co-ordination
of information by Design Lead
Agree formats for Project Outputs
Assist Project Team Members in assembling information for Project Outputs
Collaborative working, info exchange & project team management (3 of 4) :
Support the implementation of the projects BIM Protocol; updating the

appendices
Liaise with and co-operate with Project Team Members and the Employer in
support of a collaborative working culture
Assist the Project Team Members in establishing information exchange processes
(by defining and agreeing on) procedures for convening, chairing, and attendance;
responsible for recording information exchange process meetings
Participate in and comply with project team management procedures and
processes including: Risk and value management; Performance management and
measurement procedures; Change management procedures including adjustment
to budgets and programme; Attendance at project and design team meetings
(Approve) and implement record keeping, archiving and audit trail for (the)
Information Model
Responsibilities Additional Service (4 of 4) :
Provide the services to host the Common Data Environment
3. PAS 1192-2:2013 Specification for Information Management
for the Capital/ Delivery Phase of Construction Projects using
Building Information Modelling (BIM)
Principle Responsibilities:
Enable reliable information exchange through a Common Data Environment

Maintain and receive information into the Information Model
Enable integration and co-ordination of information within the Information Model
Configure information for Project Outputs
Populate the information exchange format for the Information Model
Accept reject information exchanges within the Common Data Environment
(The information Manager has) no design responsibility or right to issue instructions
In addition to the Information manager
Any new roles needed?
3. PAS 1192-2:2013 Specification for Information Management
for the Capital/ Delivery Phase of Construction Projects using
Building Information Modelling (BIM)
Table 2 (p. 19) identifies a number of other standard(ised) roles for a UK
Level 2 BIM project: In addition to Information Management, the
following are listed:
Project Delivery Management;
Lead Designer;
Task Team Manager;
Task Information Manager;
Interface Manager; and
Information Originator.
So we need to developing new roles and improve
the competency of current ones, but
what is a competency?

In Summary
We need to rethink our approach to
information management
responsibilities and roles
We need to accept that digital transformation affecting roles - is
rapid and inevitable.
We need to avoid over-defining roles through static standards

that (a) require a long time to develop; and (b) and even a longer
time to update.
We need to invest less in short-term fixes (e.g. low-level training
and commercially-offered certifications) and instead - adopt a
longer term role-definition strategy that has a dual focus:
On the individual:
By developing roles based on a clear competency structure
By continuously updating these roles through individualised
professional-development plans
On the project:
Deciphering the information uses for each project
Adopting information exchange protocols that suit each project
And of course, continuously aligning the two together!
