This website is focused on Green and Energy Efficiency Building in Vietnam. The website is collated and hosted by the Ministry of Construction (MOC) to promote this topic within industry. The project is to improve energy efficiency in commercial buildings and high-rise apartments in Vietnam. It is funded and supported by the United Nations Development Program/Global Environment Facility (UNDP/GEF). The project aims to reduce the intensity of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the Construction industry in Vietnam over the next few years. The direct objective of the project is to improve energy efficiency in commercial and apartment buildings in Ho Chi Minh and Hanoi. This objective is accomplished through three components (1) Improving the enforcement capacity of the Code on Energy Efficient Buildings; (2) Initiatives to support the development of the construction market; and (3) Applications and replication of energy-saving construction technologies. Each component includes a number of complementary activities designed to remove barriers to strict implementation of the Code and greater adoption of energy-saving technologies, systems and practices. in construction in commercial buildings and high-rise apartments. The website contains lots of useful information about how to provide greener and more energy efficient buildings. Whilst not directly BIM focused the site make references back to the BIM initiatives in Vietnam and the importance of this in the next steps. The website has lots of news and updates as well as containing resources such as documents and support tools / templates which can be used.

Public institution “Skaitmenine statyba” (“Digital Construction“) is an organization that joins associations of Lithuanian construction sector and coordinates the digitalization process of Lithuanian construction.

Prepared by the Ministry of Environment of the Republic of Lithuania, and approved by the Goverment of the Republic of Lithuania. This document was published on the 20th May 2020 and is the decision of the Government on the mandatory application of BIM methods.

Prepared by the Ministry of Environment of the Republic of Lithuania, and approved by the Goverment of the Republic of Lithuania. This document was published on the 12th August 2020 and is the decision of the Government on the approval of the establishment of Lithuanian national construction information classification system (NSIK). Lithuanian national construction information classification system (also known as NSIK – in Lithuanian Nacionalinis Statybos Informacijos Klasifikatorius) is one of the essential measures to ensure general application of Building Information Modelling (BIM) methods based on collaboration. Lithuanian national construction information classification system is being planned for 2023 and will be prepared by implementing BIM-LT project.

The Ministry of Environment of the Republic of Lithuania ( ) which is responsible for the formation of policy in construction sector progress, organization, coordination and controlling of its implementation in Lithuania has moved forward quite a lot in few years talking about digitalisation of Lithuanian construction sector. There is a need to create state-level digitalisation measures, ensure the leadership of public sector, strengthen the capacities and capabilities of public and private sector. The Ministry has launched an informational website www.statyba40.lt (www.construction40.lt) for all initiatives regarding the digitalisation of Lithuanian construction sector. BIM is one of the key elements of Statyba 4.0. The Lithuanian term Statyba 4.0 (in English Construction 4.0) refers to the digitalisation of the construction sector. At the moment The Ministry of Environment of the Republic of Lithuania with partners Vilnius Gediminas Technical University and Kaunas University of Technology (two leading technical universities in Lithuania), State Enterprise Lithuanian Road Administration, State Enterprise Turto bankas and Public Body Construction Sector Development Agency is implementing project “Creation of the measures to increase efficiency of the life cycle processes of public sector construction works using Building Information Modelling (BIM)”. This project is also known as BIM-LT project . BIM-LT project has begun in early 2019 and the end date is 2023. The activities of BIM-LT project include preparation of free state-level digitalisation measures: BIM normative documents, Lithuanian national construction information classification system (also known as NSIK), BIM methodological documents for public procurement, the methodology for evaluation and monitoring of BIM benefits and training related to the application of the BIM normative documents, NSIK, BIM methodological documents for public procurement, the methodology for evaluation and monitoring of BIM benefits. BIM-LT project has also a Consultative Committee which is represented by public sector clients and design and construction firms. There are also consultations with public included in the activities of BIM-LT project (More information about BIM-LT project following the link: )

The Slovenian Association for Information Modelling of Works (abbreviated name is Association siBIM, abbreviated as siBIM) is a voluntary, independent, and non-profit organisation that brings together engineers and supporters of engineering fields who actively participate or want to participate in information modelling of buildings of the built environment (BIM), with the aim of organized integration and education, professional development, mutual socialization and exchange of experience. The association was founded on 30.1.2015 in Ljubljana on the initiative of individuals from the construction industry and the university. The founding assembly was home to 32 interested engineers and experts from all over Slovenia who represented the fields of civil engineering, architecture, mechanical engineering, ICT, economics, etc. The objectives of the association are to: – Education and information of members and the general public on information modelling of the built environment (BIM approaches, BIM-technologies), its practical application and developments in this field. – Organisation of education, consultations, workshops and conferences on information modelling (BIM) of the built environment. – Organisation and assistance in the preparation of working groups, preparation of guidelines and recommendations for the profession. – Providing examples of good practice in the field of information modelling (BIM) of the built environment and promoting the exchange of experience between members. – Representation of the interests of all Slovenian sectors operating in the field of information modelling (BIM) of the built environment at international level. – Cooperation in the preparation of guidelines and regulations in the field of information modelling of the built environment. – Connecting with related associations in the world. The siBIM website contains information on how to join the association as well as lots of other useful information for BIM adoption relevant to Slovenia. The site contains information about the association, news and current events. As well as this information there is also a document collection which shares useful info such as the manual for the implementation of BIM and the Guide to introducing information modelling in the European public sector.

Content Index for Universal BIM Guide. As part of a BIM adoption programme it is often useful to provide guidance to the organisation, industry and supply chain on how to adopt and deliver BIM using you technical framework. The introduction of a BIM Guide can provide further detail on any national level implementation of BIM but offer more specific detail around the organisations sector and project type. This document outlines the potential contents for a successful BIM guide, discussing the elements which should be considered in its development.
