The Building Information Council (Bouw Informatie Raad, or BIR) promotes widespread application of BIM in the Dutch construction and infrastructure industry. BIR is a unique partnership between various stakeholders in the construction industry, where the members represent both their construction industry segment and their own company. They make practical agreements that are in the interests of the entire industry and ensure these are implemented within their own segment. The partnership focuses on implementing BIM to strengthen the quality, continuity and competitive position of the Dutch construction and infrastructure industry. The resources cotained on the website help to accelerate the development and adoption of BIM within the Netherlands.
This second part leaflet looking at the legal aspect of BIM forms a checklist for projects. This checklist (how to work together with/in a BIM) shows topics about which agreements can be made in the context of BIM. The topics in this checklist are derived from BIM protocols used in the market, combined with topics that have emerged from practice (in particular Pioneering’s BIM protocol 2.0). For a project where BIM (at least from BIM level 2) will be used – in whatever project phase – it is advisable to go through the checklist below in a start-up meeting about the BIM deliverables to be made to date.

BIM was initially mainly used as a 3D model, coupled with standardized, validated information from structures in the design phase. Today, BIM is applied much more widely. Applying BIM can now also mean that the model with construction information is used across project phases, that it is passed on, or collaborated in by more parties in the construction chain. In civil engineering, some clients have chosen a different approach route. These clients focus on the information about the building, linked to a geographical file and not directly on the 3D representation. The emphasis is on exchanging current, standardized and validated information during the life cycle with construction partners and within the organization using open BIM standards and libraries. All of this change needs updates to the legal situation around BIM. This leaflet explains over two pages the key facts to consider when looking at the legal aspect of BIM.

BIM Loket is working towards a sector in which working with BIM and open standards is the norm. As part of this they need to develop information and training related to BIM to upskill the industry and increase the capability to deliver these requirements. The BIM Loket website contains lots of information and support documentation like this Atlas of Open BIM Standards. In the Atlas of open BIM standards you will find an overview of the various standards, and their mutual relationships from different angles. In addition to the existing relationships, the atlas also describes desired, future relationships. In this way, the atlas provides input for the BIM Loket’s plans for the coming years. The appendix contains a more detailed description per standard, including the relationships with the other standards.
The atlas not only describes the standards that are managed at BIM Loket, but also related standards of our partner organizations and important international standards and norms. In the document “Roadmap standards analysis c1” the relationships between all these standards have been explored in more detail. Both documents form the input for the (further) development of the Roadmap standards in 2020. The Roadmap, in turn, forms input for the BIM Loket’s long-term plan. In addition, the Roadmap is important input for the Digital Built Environment System (DSGO), which will be set up in the coming years in the context of digitization movement for the construction of digiGO.

This two page leaflet looks at how the habits, behavior and persistence of corporate culture are often underestimated when introducing BIM within a companyÂ’s way of work. Working with BIM requires employees to develop different competences. It also requires a change in mindset. In this leaflet the most common BIM roles in the Dutch construction sector and the accompanying competences expected from the employees are described and explained. BIM roles can be added to an employeeÂ’s existing job description and used in assessments, they can also be used as educational targets/goals for employees.

This two page leaflet has been written to givs insight into the Open BIM standards already available in the Netherlands. It is on this overview that the Building Information CouncilÂ’s BIM standards policy is based. This leaflet explains how to use open standards, what an open standard is, and why we need open standards. The document highlights the various open standards available with descriptions of each.

BIM Loket aims to challenge everyone in the construction, real estate, infrastructure and spatial environment to work together on digitization, based on an open information playground. Existing capacity problems require an acceleration and renewal of the sector. This is only possible with an impulse in the field of digitization and computerization. Technically, more and more is possible. What is especially needed now is a culture change to adopt those opportunities. The BIM Loket started in 2015 as a partnership on computerization in construction, and grew into a ‘clubhouse’ of, for and by the sector. Meanwhile, the ambition extends further BIM Loket see their role as a network driver of digital, integral collaboration and innovation. Together with the market, they are working towards a sector in which working with BIM and open standards is the norm.
Together with their network, BIM Loket have a wealth of expertise to ensure that the ‘BIM snowball’ grows as quickly as possible, and that as many organizations as possible can benefit from this digital change. The aim of the BIM Loket is to share knowledge, information, news and resources related to BIM in the Netherlands. The website contains a wealth of information around all elements of the BIM Loket work as many standards and guidance documents as part of their BIM Library.
