Executive summary
To successfully implement BIM, a project team must perform detailed and comprehensive
planning. This BIM Execution Plan (BEP) ensures that all parties are clearly aware of the
opportunities, technicalities and responsibilities associated with the implementation of BIM on the
project.

It is important the project team always work to the latest revision of the Project BEP,
RESPONSIBILITY MATRIX and
AIDP available on the CDE.

Bim objectives
This BEP responds to the EIR noting the proposed strategic objectives of both the Employer and
BakerHicks and the project activities to be undertaken. A summary of these objectives and
opportunities are summarised below.

SCOPE
This BEP is used to document the decisions made by the project team to capture information when
working through the BIM execution plan process. It is associated with the Building Information
Modelling standard ISO 19650-1 and PAS1192-2.
The BIM Execution Plan defines uses for BIM on every project (e.g. design authoring, cost
estimating, and design coordination), along with a detailed design of the process for executing BIM
throughout the project lifecycle. Additionally, this plan defines roles and responsibilities detailing
scope of information to be shared, relevant business processes and supporting software.
At the outset of a project, the team needs to document the BIM strategy, which is managed and
maintained by the BIM Coordinator/Manager. The project teams including consultants who are
collaborating with the BIM are to familiarise themselves with these documents and apply the BIM
standards to their work.

3.1 EIR (EXCHANGE INFORMATION REQUIREMENTS)

Appendix A outlines all the assets that require data and specifically what data is required to be
input and when.
COBie schemas shall be issued from each discipline at handover in line with the Appendix A.

3.2 CONSTRUCTION OPERATIONS BUILDING INFORMATION EXCHANGE

(COBIE)
This project will produce an output of COBie compliant information deliverables for facilities
management use at the agreed Information Exchange stages throughout the life of the project.
It is the responsibility of each Task Team Manager to ensure the integrity of COBie references
(worksheet, column naming and positioning, cell and pick list referencing) prior to upload to the
Shared area of the CDE.

3.3 COBIE PARAMETERS

It is the responsibility of each Designer to ensure the required COBie fields are populated before
issue to the CDE. For information exchange dates please refer to Section 1.3.

4.3 VOLUME STRATEGY

Large projects may need to be split into several volumes or zones to facilitate efficient
manipulation in the virtual environment. This helps reduce file sizes for; use, upload and download
when working in a collaborative manner. This process must be managed by the Lead Designer.
Volume plans and naming conventions to be shared via the CDE.
The volume strategy needs to be defined at project outset, as volume codes are included in the
file naming protocol denoted in Section 4.2. The table below specifies the project volume strategy.

Models, drawings and reports issued for review / checking shall use the S3 Status

4.9 SHARED DATUM AND COORDINATES

It is necessary to identify the relationship between the model origin and orientation of the Survey
Grid. Origins must coordinate with any legacy data/ geometry or laser scans provided by the
Employer. It is the Lead Designer’s responsibility to issue the project coordinate grid file to all
stakeholders via the CDE. For this project, a Geospatial Grids Revit model has been supplied
4.10 MODEL DIVISION
Worksets are to be named in accordance with the table below. Any changes to model subdivision
or workset provision must be agreed by the entire design team. Any changes are to be recorded
in the table below and the Project BEP updated on the CDE. Worksets should be created in such a
manner to ease substitution of geometry with sub-Contractor’s models e.g. curtain walling.

4.11 PROJECT INFORMATION MODEL (PIM) DELIVERY STRATEGY
Specific requirements of Stakeholders must be considered to enable effective coordination. To
ensure that all information is accessible to all parties please follow the guidance detailed below.
Any deviation from this table must be agreed with the Information Manager.

Item Description

No more than one building shall be modelled in a single file and contain only data from
1
one discipline.
Model files and information should not exceed 200MB. Should the file size be breached,
2
the model shall be segregated following the Volume Strategy defined in Section 4.3.
Where multiple models make up a single project, a container model should be
3 considered whose function it is to federate the models. Federated models should not
exceed 500MB.

Placeholder volumes for key items such as ceilings, under floor voids and bespoke
manufacture are to be defined at an early stage. Any changes to these placeholder
4
volumes cannot be changed without agreement from all stakeholders. Placeholder
volumes will be subdivided and ownership passed as the design is progressed.
5.0 Collaboration procedures
The process flow indicates the detailed information flow between disciplines and the method for
approval and coordination via WIP and Shared process.

5.1 COLLABORATION STRATEGY

The Information Manager shall coordinate the file transfer process via a Common Data
Environment at the earliest opportunity. All issued documents must comply with the document
management protocols set out in the PEP.
