Instructions to BIM Planning Team

This template is provided to standardize the format for the documented BIM Execution Plan (BIMxP) for a given project for the United States Antarctic Program (USAP). Successful execution of a BIM requires careful planning; it is not the intent of this document to be a form to fill out, but rather to be a simple yet comprehensive framework for this planning process, as well as the documentation of the results of this planning.

The framework for this template follows the more comprehensive USAP Building Information Modeling Standard, which should be reviewed as the first part of the planning process. Text using the “Instructions” text style, such as this paragraph, are intended to provide minimal direction during the completion of the BIM Execution Plan, but do not replace the more thorough issues, concepts, and technical requirements documented in the Standard.

This BIMxP is a required deliverable to the USAP and focuses on those issues of prime importance to the USAP. It intentionally does not address other BIM planning issues that a firm may need to consider in order to execute BIM, such as file naming, server names, folder locations, technological needs, key internal personnel, etc. However, in the interest of not producing two BIMxPs (once for the USAP and one for internal use), internal requirements may be included in this same document at the planners’ discretion.

All Instructions, including these paragraphs, should be deleted from the template prior to submission.

This Template is Revision 0, First Issue. Contact the USAP BIM Program Manager for the most recent version. Revision block above is for the actual BIM Execution Plan, not the Template.
