The association Odborná rada pro BIM, z. s. was founded in 2011 and is an independent private sector platform for the popularization, cooperation, standardization and development of BIM in the Czech Republic.
The Centre for Digital Built Britain (CDBB) is a partnership between the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) and the University of Cambridge. Established in 2017, it brings together industry, academia and policymakers to further the digital agenda in the UK’s construction sector and investigate its long-term effects on society and the economy.
CDBB’s aim to support and develop a smart digital strategy within the built environment echoes the government’s commitment to transform the construction industry through the adoption of digital ways of working. These will deeply transform the way the industry plans, constructs, operates and maintains built assets.
CDBB is a member of the Construction Innovation Hub, alongside the Building Research Establishment (BRE) and the Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC), and we collaborate with other partners in the Transforming Construction Sector Deal. It is also home to a number of UK government programmes including the UK BIM Programme, National Digital Twin Programme and parts of the Global Infrastructure Programme.
The Centre funds research and supports multiple initiatives, collaborating with a variety of partners and several working groups at national and regional level.
Alongside BSI and the UK BIM Alliance, CDBB is also a partner of the UK BIM Framework, which offers the construction industry and public clients resources and guidance to implement BIM in the UK.
Founded in 1901, the British Standards Institution is the UK’s National Standards Body. The Group operates in 193 countries at over 128,000 sites, working with businesses of all sizes, from international companies to local small firms.
BSI produces standards, it audits, provides certification, runs training courses and champions innovation and best practices. Its role reaches across the international standards community, improving corporate governance, helping organisations with their performance and boosting their competitiveness worldwide.
BSI collaborates in innovative fields like smart cities, nanotechnologies, cell therapy and Building Information Modelling (BIM). Alongside CDBB and UKBIMA, it is a partner of the UK BIM Framework, which offers resources and guidance to implement BIM in the UK’s built environment.
CAPECO is the Peruvian Chamber of Construction, established in 1958 to represent companies and individuals working in the building industry. It promotes quality standards, safety and ethical construction practices to improve living conditions and increase competitiveness in international markets.
It offers news, information, support of innovative initiatives and a calendar of events at national and regional level. It is member of the Inter-American Federation of the Construction Industry (FIIC), which includes national chambers of the construction industry from 18 countries in Latin America.
CAPECO’s vision is to contribute to national economic development, stimulate public policies for strategic changes in the sector and generate value for its members through national and international representation, and provision of services.
In March 2021 it launched the first Construction Innovation Week to present the national path to digital transformation, the companies involved and demonstrate how it could accelerate technological innovation, generate new trends for residential living and forge crucial partnership with academic researchers to stimulate knowledge transfer.
