What is the BIM Implementation Plan?

The BIM Execution Plan (BEP)  is an essential document, written with the aim of providing a framework for effectively carrying out the construction project and  optimizing the workflow .

It consists of two distinct phases:

•  The BIM Execution Plan (Pre-contract BEP)  is a document prepared by potential suppliers that sets out a specific proposal for the development of the construction project. Its purpose is to describe the skills, key decisions, and working methods that must be adopted throughout the construction project to meet the client’s needs and objectives. It also designates the operators who will participate in the process and specifies the responsibilities and information requested at key project stages. The Execution Plan (Pre-contract BEP) also includes the  Project Implementation Plan (PIP).  This document must be submitted by each organization competing to participate in the project and includes  the supplier’s assessment  of their competence, the information technology that will ensure the efficiency of the BIM process, and the organization’s experience and resources. Part of the BIM Execution Plan (Pre-contract BEP) is the Delivery strategy of the project information model (PIM). The pre-BEP is prepared taking into account a document called the ” Employer’s Information Requirements (EIR) .” This is a critical source of information, as it describes the customer’s information requirements. Specifically, it describes the information that must be delivered regarding key decisions, standards, and collaboration methods required to ensure the solution has  effectively met the customer’s needs .

• After the project is awarded, the  BIM Execution Plan (post-contract BEP) will be drawn up   to facilitate project management. This is an interactive process that gradually involves all actors in the supply chain. It includes the contract, which confirms compliance with the Employer’s Information Requirements (EIR) document. Basically, at the management level, it should include the roles, responsibilities, and authority of each professional, the main stages of the process, the definition of collaborative processes and information modeling, the  delivery strategy  , and  compliance with standards . A review of the Project Implementation Plan (PIP) should also be indicated. The BIM Execution Plan (post-contract BEP) also includes the so-called ” Responsibilities Matrix ” for the entire supply chain, a tool that clearly defines responsibilities for producing information and models for each phase of the project. The production of the MIDP (Master Information Delivery Plan) and the TIDP (Task Information Delivery Plan) are fundamental parts of this phase. In the first case, the purpose of the document is  to provide the information necessary for the development of the  construction project, such as those related to models, plans, specifications, software, etc. In the second case, it refers to a series of documents to be provided for each activity, including format, date, and responsibility.

ADVANTAGES OF BIM

Over the past decade,  BIM has gained popularity within the AEC industry , developing a prototype of a smart virtual building that includes the design, operational construction, maintenance, and eventual demolition phases. In fact, the great advantage of BIM is that a  digital simulation of the project  is created before the first brick is laid. BIM therefore minimizes errors, enables rapid calculations, and quantifies additional costs and alternative scenarios.

Thanks to the  BIM execution plan , all team members must understand the project objectives and the end uses of the BIM model in order to properly configure it. The objective, during the research phase, is to propose a cost-effective bid, while maintaining  compliance with standards . The coordinated organization of activities promotes  interoperability , enabling  budget reduction  (through less waste),  improved design quality  , and  simplified communication , among other benefits.

OUR SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS

The digitalization of the construction industry  is having an impact on both the electricity and energy markets. We have developed two software solutions capable of leveraging the  benefits of BIM .

elec calc™ BIM  is the world’s first software that seamlessly integrates electrical calculations into the Open BIM process. With elec calc™ BIM, users can design, calculate, and dimension electrical installations using the digital model in IFC 4 format, generated by any 3D architecture software (Revit, ArchiCAD, SketchUp, etc.). The software can be connected to the  BIM&CO platform  to access manufacturer data.

archelios™ O&M  is the monitoring software  for any photovoltaic installation . It provides all the benefits of the  PVIM digital model  for advanced operations and maintenance.
