This collection of case studies highlights the use of digital technologies, including BIM and digital twins, to improve water infrastructure and operations. From the refurbishment of reservoirs and treatment plants to large-scale water transfer projects, these case studies showcase the challenges faced, solutions implemented, and the benefits realised.

Guidance published by BIM4Water, developed by the 4D task group, supports the creation of Exchange Information Requirements (EIR) for water projects that require 4D BIM. It provides a template for EIR authors, applicable across various contract documents and disciplines. The guidance aligns with BS EN ISO 19650-1:2018 and outlines best practices for integrating 4D project delivery.

One of the main activities of the EU BIM Task Group (EUBTG) is the organization of knowledge transfer workshops. The goal of the workshops is to have active round table discussions with on-site participants using the following format:
Discussion moderated workshop without long boring presentations.
20-30 participants maximum to be able to keep discussions interesting and let any participant take an active part in the debate.
Topics and agenda of the workshop can be in advance shape by registered participants.
Outcome: Knowledge and suggestion document that will be published on the EUBTG website after the workshop
The workshops are intended for public clients and policy makers. Information about upcoming workshops is communicated through the General Assembly members of EUBTG.
This capability assessment sets out the actions that government and industry will take to create opportunities for the UK construction sector by becoming a world leader in Building Information Modelling (BIM). We will build on the considerable progress already made in embedding BIM into the domestic sector.

Web pages of information related to the gradual introduction of BIM in public procurement under Ireland’s Capital Works Management Framework (CWMF) and defined in the 2023 contract reforms package supporting the National Development Plan (NDP)
From January 2024 the OGP, in conjunction with the Government Contracts Committee for Construction, will monitor the uptake of BIM across those public bodies who are required to use the CWMF. The timeline is subject to review, any changes will be based on feedback from this monitoring process.
