What is the significance of BS1192 Part 4?

 UK use of COBie, NOT use of UK COBie

 Code of Practice, requiring judgement about Purposes

 Full BS

 Free to download and in colour

 Question

• A COBie is different in the US and UK

• B COBie is only relevant to buildings
• C COBie is only relevant to new-build
• D COBie is only relevant to clients
• E Standards are for wimps
What was the process ?

 COBie first published seven years ago

 COBie identified in UK Government Construction Strategy
 Supports PAS 1192 – Part 2 and PAS 1192 Part 3
 Three years of consultation, examples and tools on COBie-UK-2012
 Twelve months review of infrastructure use cases
 Six months development by technical author and steering panel
 Draft for public consultation attracted 370 comments

 Free to download and in colour

What were the lessons learnt?

 Vocabulary is a major obstacle to multi-disciplinary thinking.

 Asset thinking is uneven across

 … building and infrastructure
 … design/engineering, construction and use.
