BIM4TURKEY is a platform belonging to “Building Information Modeling and Management Association”. It is the center of transformation for the construction industry. BIM4TURKEY aims to facilitate the integration of BIM easier and smoother to the building industry, Higher Education and public companies. BIM4TURKEY provides the ground for communication and cooperation for all the parties involved in a design and construction project. BIM committees help for capacity building and awareness about BIM in Turkey with regular reports on building standards and accelerate the integration of BIM into the sector. They aim to support construction companies to improve their competitiveness in the international arena. They organize events and workshops to build awareness towards these goals and develop critical mass in BIM and form a community of practice and academics in BIM, sharing knowledge and technology via the BIM University.
The BIM4Turkey website contains lots of information related to recent events, webinars and recordings which contain useful information. The website also has a ‘university’ section with several pages related to BIM education programmes.
The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization whose mission is to foster the economy of the European Single Market and the wider European continent in global trading, the welfare of European citizens and the environment by providing an efficient infrastructure to interested parties for the development, maintenance and distribution of coherent sets of standards and specifications. CEN is one of three European Standardization Organizations (together with CENELEC and ETSI) that have been officially recognized by the European Union and by the European Free Trade Association (EFTA) as being responsible for developing and defining voluntary standards at European level.
CEN TC 442 is the technical committee working under CEN with the purpose of supporting the creation and management of BIM related standards. The scope of CEN TC 442 is BIM standardization in the field of structured semantic life-cycle information for the built environment. The committee aim to develop a structured set of standards, specifications and reports which specify methodologies to define, describe, exchange, monitor, record and securely handle asset data, semantics and processes with links to geospatial and other external data. Through this website you can see all of the work completed and published to date as well as the current workplan for upcoming developments.

BIMTECH is a group which help the construction sector in Romania to become efficient, sustainable, and operate at the level of international standards. The group do this through work in three areas, Research, Development and Implementation. BIMTECH creates a pole of competence that includes specialists and information that support the construction sector by actively supporting projects based on the BIM concept. They analyze and recommend technologies that comply with international and local standards, in accordance with the design requirements, ensuring the way to optimize the design, execution, operation times, and the tools used. They offer expertise in BIM pilot projects, which are the starting point for observing and implementing functional workflows in the construction sector through a consolidated approach to the stages of the building life cycle.
The BIMTECH group is a multidisciplinary team of specialists consisting of academics, architects, engineers, lawyers and entrepreneurs. The members of the Association want to associate in order to research, develop and implement applicable technologies within a platform for the design, management, execution and operation of the built environment. This website contains details of the group and their activities as well as the latest news, details of pilot projects, recent video recordings and upcoming events.
