The UK’s built environment* sector is on a journey towards a smarter, more efficient and sustainable future – a vital stage of which is adoption of the UK BIM Framework and its guidance.
BSI, CDBB & the UK BIM Alliance have created, and continue to develop and maintain the UK BIM Framework and associated tools and standards – enabling organisations, regardless of size or existing digital maturity, to future-proof their businesses.
As a partnership we are committed to making the benefits of better information management appropriate for all UK organisations. Our goal is to bring everyone along on this journey and we encourage you to adopt the Framework and its guidance.

The UK BIM Alliance (UKBIMA) was launched in 2016 as a cross-industry alliance reaching the whole built environment to advocate the adoption of BIM in the UK and wider digital transformation.
UKBIMA’s aim is to ensure that BIM becomes business as usual whilst at the same time transforming and future proofing the way the industry works. Its objectives include the provision of trusted, independent leadership, the mobilisation of communities, support for practical implementation within businesses of all sizes and development of a common understanding and approach.
Its activities include collaborative projects to foster digital transformation, and resources and events to inform, inspire and guide all communities of practitioners.
Alongside BSI and CDBB, UKBIMA is a partner delivering the UK BIM Framework, which offers resources and guidance to implement BIM across the UK’s built environment*.

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.
CCI is aiming to increase construction productivity through a collaborative digital information infrastructure (CCI classification system) to enable consistent data exchange. Based on international standards and developed for digital processes, CCI covers the whole built environment: buildings, infrastructure and other civil engineering works and throughout the lifecycle – from planning through design, execution, operation, demolition to removal and reuse.
The CZ BIM Framework aims to support BIM adoption in the Czech Republic’s public sector and construction, helping organizations of all sizes on their journey of digital transformation.
Special strategy, guidance and standards for transport infrastructure organizations (highways, railways), related to the main Czech’s national BIM strategy.
The Government’s BIM Strategy was published in September 2017 to stimulate the public sector and to support the digital transformation and growth of the construction sector. It was prepared by the Ministry of Industry and Trade, working closely with Czech BIM Council experts. Within the Strategy, a key element for reducing costs, cutting waste and avoiding errors is the adoption of the Building Information Management (BIM), which makes the most of digital technologies to provide a consistent flow of information and measurable standards at all stages of the construction life cycle, including asset and facility management.
Digital Czechia is a set of concepts and implementation plans ensuring the preconditions for the long-term prosperity of the Czech Republic in the environment of the ongoing digital revolution. Its content can be defined as “Strategy of coordinated and comprehensive digitization of the Czech Republic 2018+”.

A Smart Object Library provides a bank of CAD objects that are developed in such a way as to enhance connectivity between different datastores for regularly used asset types. The library is a database of frequently used asset types (smart objects) in template form, which allows for the development of 3D models of new or existing assets with relative ease and minimal data input. It also allows for easier sharing of data with third parties.
