The BIM Manual and supporting documents outline strategic processes and workflows for Rail Baltica and its supply chain, evolving over the project lifecycle to integrate technological and methodological advancements. The manual applies to all project phases, as defined in the Employer Information Requirements (EIR/TS), ensuring a consistent framework for BIM delivery.

Integrating 5D BIM into large rail projects improves cost management but faces challenges related to technology, functionality, and governance. This paper presents a framework to support financial decision-making, project management, and efficient delivery.

Key elements include project governance, BIM policies, digital platforms, BIM LOD, cost-estimation classification, and continuous improvement. Governance ensures structured implementation, policies maintain quality, and digital platforms enable collaboration. Cost-estimation aligns with project scope, and continuous improvement enhances efficiency and innovation.

The study, based on Victorian rail projects, highlights challenges such as inconsistent data exchange standards, compatibility issues with cost management, and unclear governance strategies. Further validation in real-world projects is recommended.

Integrating 5D BIM in large rail projects enhances cost management but faces technical, functional, and governance challenges. This paper proposes a framework addressing governance, BIM standards, digital platforms, LOD, cost estimation, and continuous improvement. Applied to Victorian rail projects, challenges include data exchange limitations and governance gaps. Further real-world validation is recommended.

This report discusses integrating geospatial and statistical data systems with BIM and infrastructure development in Africa. It also covers a roadmap for transforming and modernizing official statistics in Africa, developed by the Economic Commission for Africa. The roadmap guides national statistical systems to meet user needs and supports sustainable development goals. Developed with African and global partners, it integrates existing strategies and will be implemented through national strategies and collaborative efforts across the continent.

These documents outline CAD/BIM submission requirements for planning data, including naming conventions, coordinate systems, and file formats. You can find these standards under the Abu Dhabi Municipality (ADM) guidelines, which detail specifications for AutoCAD and BIM submissions, as well as compliance requirements with ISO 19650 and related standards

This document ensures model compliance with the ADM naming standards, model coordination, and clash detection protocols. It is designed to standardise the quality and health of submitted BIM models

Engineering Science Institute for Training (Esi) is ISO 9001:2015 certified Training Institute and its aspiration is to efficiently provide international standard training courses in the field of Engineering, Construction Management, Information Technology (IT), Project Management, Contract Management, Health, Safety and Environment (HS&E), Industrial Trades, etc. as these sectors are vital and play a pivotal role in on-going activities and development projects of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

This document outlines Qatar’s BIM standards, focusing on project organisation, data structures, templates, file naming conventions, and software requirements. The Modelling and Data Management Guide provides guidelines for managing both graphical and non-graphical data within information models. These models must be shared between all stakeholders through a Common Data Environment (CDE) to ensure that project deliverables meet the required quality standards. The guide is project-specific and should be used alongside the BIM Execution Plan (BEP) and Exchange Information Requirements (EIR) for proper implementation.

This document standardises file-naming practices for BIM projects in Qatar, ensuring clarity and consistency. It specifies the file naming convention for BIM and CAD in all Ashghal projects across departments, adhering to international best practices and standards, such as ISO 19650.

The Qatar government’s BIM implementation hub provides a central resource for templates related to Building Information Modelling (BIM). These templates are designed to support consistent and standardised practices across projects, ensuring alignment with national BIM guidelines and international standards.
