Developing materials to help

manufacturers understand when and

how to transition to BIM

• BIM4M2 survey for manufacturers

• Group Website

• Promote output from other WGs

• Encourage Product manufacturer

participation in BIM4M2

• What is BIM from a manufacturer’s

perspective?

• Why is BIM important to an

organisation?

• How does a manufacturer do it,

what are the options?

• What is the scope of Product Data?

• What is the process for Product

Data Template creation and

approval?

• How can Trade Associations be

supported in producing PDTs?

• How will PDTs be published?

• What manufacturers have to do to

be Level 2 Compliant

WG1: Education WG2: Data Templates WG3: Promotions

Developing guidance and process to

support Trade Associations and

manufacturers

Engaging with the wider BIM

community & sharing best practice

Operations Info Set

…………… Info Set


Informal BIM Content

Product Brochures, Specification Sheets …

Installation, Operation, Maintenance, … manuals- Specification, performance, technical, … details

- Years of accumulated response to market need

- Already available in electronic form


Structured BIM Content

Data about the Product and its Lifecycle - Involves many stakeholders contributing data

- Starts with Trade Association (members) defining

a Product Data Template, i.e. structuring the data

already in Informal Content

Product Data Template to Product Data Sheet

- Data definitions for a product type

are defined by a Trade Association

working with BIM4M2

- This template of data is authorised

by 2 Relevant Authorities and

published by CPA

- Individual manufacturers use the

template to create their own

product data sheets and publish

these on their website

Geometric BIM Content

Not required to be BIM Level 2 Compliant!

So why do manufacturers provide geometric objects?

- Construction planning requires product accuracy

- Combines all product content for BIM

- Quality assurance in both real and virtual worlds

- Inclusion in electronic catalogues

- Sales and project feedback and tracking

- Develop new strategies to differentiate in virtual world

- ………….


Geometric BIM Content

Delivering geometric objects- Object Creation

- Self develop - natively, but several formats likely

- re-use Mechanical CAD models

- 3rd Party provider- quality and ownership

- Object Publishing (User Experience is key!)

- Own website

- Publishing service

Security of Sensitive Models and Data

It is a Client/ Employer responsibility to

define security strategy/ plan/ requirements

Best practice:

SME needs to be aware where security

is likely to be an issue and flag this if

nothing has been put in place!


Summary

- Ask your Trade Association to

engage with BIM4M2

- The BIM4M2 website has useful

information - http://bim4m2.co.uk/

- BIM4M2 is here to help!
