The appendicies to the New Zealand BIM Handbook have been published by the BIM acceleration committee (BAC) and were created to promote the use of BIM and it’s benefits to create, maintain and operate quality built assest in New Zealand. These appendices explain and give examples of some of the different BIM elements which can be applied to projects. These appendices contain guidance as well as templates which can be used as a resource on projects, to facilitate early BIM adoption.
A Model Description Document (MDD) is a document issued with a model describing what it contains and identifying limitations of use. Exchanging models is the very basis of the BIM process. All users need to understand the level to which they can rely on the models they receive. Models can contain far more information than traditional electronic deliverables. The issuer of a model must clearly define what it can be used for and make information available for others to use during the development of the project. This resource is the example, the Word format template file is also available on the Information collection.

This schedule, in the form of an appendix example, assigns responsibilities to model elements via an author (MEA) and defines Level of Development (LOD) for those model elements across project stages. Model elements ownership can be transferred between participating parties, but should be clearly defined in the table within this example. This MEA schedule is a starting point for a project and the selection of elements in the schedule. It should reflect individual project requirements and be agreed by participating parties. This resource is the example, the Word format template file is also available on the Information collection.

This appendix document identifies goals, uses, objectives, and responsibilities with regard to BIM. The project BIM brief should be developed in the project establishment phase to be fully effective. It is a briefing document in its own right and could form part of a Request For Proposal (RFP). The BIM evaluation and response template should accompany this brief to provide a consistent set of questions for suppliers. After this phase, the BIM execution plan provides the framework for management and operational functions of BIM throughout the projectÂ’s life cycle. The project BIM brief should be developed with reference to the New Zealand BIM handbook and client information strategy and operations requirements. The briefing document should be used at pre-appointment stages when procuring a delivery team. This resource is the example, the Word format template file is also available on the Information collection.

The intent of the BIM execution plan is to provide an outline that will ensure all parties involved are clearly aware of the opportunities and responsibilities associated with projects that implement BIM. The plan defines why you are using BIM on the project. It sets goals, objectives, and responsibilities, and outlines how the process will be executed through the project life cycle. The BIM execution plan is a living document and should be developed and refined throughout the project life cycle to ensure the project remains on schedule and meets the briefed requirements. This BEP template can be used as a framework for the development of a BEP for specific construction project/s. The BIM execution plan should be developed with reference to the New Zealand BIM handbook. This resource is the example, the Word format template file is also available on the Information collection.

The New Zealand BIM Handbook published by the BIM acceleration committee (BAC) was created to promote the use of BIM and it’s benefits to create, maintain and operate quality built assest in New Zealand. The handbook has been developed in partnership with industry and draws on best BIM practice from around the world. This third edition expands on the previous release in 2016. This recent release of the BIM handbook also references ISO 19650 standards and provides more information on BIM for constrcution, facilities management and linear infrastructure. Appendices contained within the BIM handbook (linked separtely in the information collection) provide templates and examples for BIM planning documents and more details on specific aspects of the BIM workflow and model coordination
This is the third edition of the handbook. It provides more information on BIM for construction, facilities management and linear infrastructure. Reference is made to the recently released standards ISO 19650 parts 1 and 2. Other document references have been updated to reflect the latest editions. This handbook outlines critical inputs from FM/AM providers that will ensure BIM delivers the information they need, in a format that they can use. Includes BIM planning documents and details on aspects of BIM workflow.
The construction industry is facing a new opportunity to be reborn as a high-tech industry through the spread of smart construction technology as it converges with the advanced technologies of the 4th industrial revolution such as IoT, robots, and AI. In particular, BIM, a convergence technology of three-dimensional design and big data which integrates and utilizes information from the entire construction cycle. BIM effects planning, design, procurement, construction, maintenance, and enables stakeholders at each stage to efficiently manage their information. It can be said to be a key means of smart construction that can maximize the productivity, constructability, and efficiency of the construction process through better communication and collaboration. The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (MLIT) will actively support the early settlement and activation of BIM in order to completely reorganize the existing construction process based on two-dimensional drawings and a segmented execution system for each construction stage. To this end, MLIT intend to realize smart construction through innovation, through the full introduction of BIM and an integrated collaboration system. MLIT would like to establish a guideline system that suggests procedures and methods. The BIM guideline system is divided into the basic and implementation guidelines commonly presented by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and the application guidelines set according to the characteristics of each client.
The first publication from MLIT is the “Construction Industry BIM Basic Guidelines”, which is the highest common guideline dealing with basic principles and standards for the application of BIM in the construction industry, and the “Construction Industrial BIM Implementation Guidelines”. In addition, the client groups should prepare the ‘BIM application guidelines for each sector’ and the ‘BIM practice guidelines for each sector’ that determine detailed implementation plans according to the type of project and the practical characteristics of each client. As the first step, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport has published this ‘Basic Guidelines for Construction Industry BIM’ which is the highest level guideline, and plans to prepare the ‘Construction Industry BIM Implementation Guidelines’ in 2021. In addition, MLIT plan to release the “Construction Industry BIM Roadmap,” which includes BIM development strategies and action plans, such as the mandatory application of BIM for public construction projects. It is hoped that this ‘Basic Guidelines for BIM in the Construction Industry’ will serve as a good opportunity to smoothly discuss BIM application standards and required levels among implementing entities, and to actively share and utilize various construction data to enhance synergy.

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.
Making the transition to working with BIM will greatly benefit an organization. A successful BIM implementation will make the exchange of digital information more efficient. This, in turn, will contribute to minimizing failure costs, minimizing loss of information and clarifying workflows and schedules. Implementing BIM will have an impact on an organization, and investments (in the IT department and in education) will have to be made and the way the company and its employees work (together) will change. These changes require extra effort from staff, managing this transition properly is the key to success. This leaflet lays out a series of steps that will help you manage this process.

Rijkswaterstaat is part of the Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management and responsible for the design, construction, management and maintenance of the main infrastructure facilities in the Netherlands. Rijkswaterstaat manage and develop the main road network and waterway network plus the main water systems. They endeavour to create a sustainable living environment for the country. Rijkswaterstaat work with others to ensure that the country is protected against flooding, that there is sufficient green space and an adequate supply of clean water, and that the citizens of the Netherlands are able to travel quickly and safely from A to B. Jointly promoting safety, mobility and the quality of life in the Netherlands is what Rijkswaterstaat stands for.
The information processes of construction projects must go well. Bringing and keeping the object to be built in the right place has more to do with measurements than with information processes. Nevertheless, requirements are also required for this in the contracts. It is also important to collect the right data for management. These are necessary for the execution of the management, but also to create multi-year maintenance plans and budgets. On the one hand, the maintenance contracts are about which area data Rijkswaterstaat provides during the tender to make good tenders possible. On the other hand, Rijkswaterstaat itself needs data from and information about the acreage for its own asset management tasks and legal responsibilities. Rijkswaterstaat have begun to require the use of BIM in the contracts for its projects. This website contains many resources relating to the organisations current developments.
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 foundation to information delivery. Collaboration is better if the information we build on is interchangeable, structured, unambiguous, correct, complete and reusable. The BIM basic information delivery specification (BIM basis ILS) is a good first step for making this ambition a reality.
The ILS Design & Engineering was created to communicate the information needs for the design and engineering phase unambiguously and recognizably. This specifies what information must be present in the process, where, and when. Not knowing when and where to provide or expect information causes frustrations, errors and an inefficient process. This problem seems to be becoming increasingly acute due to the increasing computerization and digitization. In our fragmented sector, an organization alone will not be able to break this ban and we must collectively implement structural improvements. The ILS O&E symbolizes the activation of the collective and the integral approach.
The solution offered is to make sure that we understand each other, for this, there must be an understanding of the content on the one hand and recognition of the way of communicating on the other. With the launch of ILS O&E, the sector has a tool with which organizations within projects can create a project-specific ILS. Alignment has been found on content and the way of communicating. By standardizing the demand side (communicating the information needs), the supply side can organize itself more efficiently and effectively. This will contribute in its entirety to the integrality of the design process and the transfer of information to production.
