BIM resources- Employer Information Requirements: what is required and what are the stated deliverables?
- Production of information: including who leads on authoring deliverables, production of models, including specification information, providing information for the ‘in use’ phase of an asset.
- Use of information: in relation to the planning, costing and monitoring of works. How you use information to manage risks. Who uses information, do operatives have access to the correct information on site?
- Analysis of information: including the use of model based analysis tools and what the process is for coordinating geometric information.
