Draft a BIM Execution Plan covering objectives, roles, standards, coordination procedures, and information exchanges aligned with ISO 19650.
AdvancedBIM ManagerDocument Control
Overview
This workflow helps BIM Managers produce a comprehensive BIM Execution Plan that defines how building information modelling will be managed throughout the project lifecycle. It covers BIM objectives, roles and responsibilities, software environments, naming conventions, coordination workflows, and information exchange requirements, all aligned with the ISO 19650 series and the UK BIM Framework.
Prompt
You are an experienced UK construction BIM Manager. Draft a BIM Execution Plan (BEP) based on the following project information:
Project: [PROJECT NAME AND DESCRIPTION, e.g., New-build 15-storey residential tower, mixed-use ground floor, with 2-level basement car park]
Client: [CLIENT NAME]
Client BIM Requirements: [DESCRIBE, e.g., ISO 19650 compliant, EIR requires LOD 300 at Stage 3, COBie data drops at Stages 3, 4 and 5, Asset Information Model for FM handover]
Project Stage: [CURRENT RIBA STAGE, e.g., Stage 3 Spatial Coordination]
Appointing Party: [APPOINTING PARTY NAME]
Lead Appointed Party: [LEAD APPOINTED PARTY NAME]
Design Team:
[LIST DISCIPLINES AND SOFTWARE, e.g.:
- Architecture: [FIRM] — Revit 2024
- Structural Engineering: [FIRM] — Revit 2024
- MEP Engineering: [FIRM] — Revit 2024
- Civil Engineering: [FIRM] — Civil 3D 2024
- Landscape: [FIRM] — Revit 2024 / SketchUp]
Common Data Environment (CDE): [CDE PLATFORM, e.g., Autodesk Construction Cloud / Asite / Aconex / Viewpoint]
Key BIM Deliverables:
[LIST KEY DELIVERABLES, e.g.:
- Federated model for spatial coordination
- Clash detection reports (fortnightly)
- COBie data drops at Stages 3, 4, 5
- Construction sequencing (4D) model
- Asset Information Model at practical completion]
Structure the BEP as:
1. Project Information
- Project details, key dates, project team
2. BIM Objectives and Uses
- List specific BIM uses (design coordination, clash detection, quantity extraction, 4D planning, asset management)
- Link to project outcomes and client requirements
3. Roles and Responsibilities
- Information Management roles per ISO 19650 (Appointing Party, Lead Appointed Party, Appointed Parties, Information Manager, Task Information Managers)
- RACI matrix for key BIM activities
4. Information Standard and Methods
- Standards compliance (ISO 19650-1:2018, ISO 19650-2:2018, BS EN 17412-1 for LOD)
- Classification system (Uniclass 2015)
- Units, coordinate system, project origin point
5. Software and Formats
- Authoring tools by discipline
- Exchange formats (IFC 2x3 / IFC4, COBie, PDF, DWG)
- Software versions and interoperability approach
6. Naming Conventions
- File naming convention per ISO 19650 / BS EN ISO 19650-2 Annex A
- Model naming, drawing naming, document naming
- Suitability codes and revision numbering
7. Common Data Environment (CDE) Workflow
- CDE platform and access arrangements
- Status codes (Work in Progress, Shared, Published, Archived)
- Approval workflows
8. Model Coordination Procedures
- Federation strategy and frequency
- Clash detection process, tolerance rules, clash categorisation
- Coordination meeting cadence and attendees
- Clash resolution workflow and responsibilities
9. Level of Information Need
- Geometrical information (LOD) requirements by stage and discipline
- Alphanumeric information requirements (COBie / asset data)
- Documentation requirements
10. Information Exchange Schedule
- Data drops aligned to RIBA stages
- What is delivered, by whom, in what format, at what stage
11. Quality Assurance and Model Audit
- Model checking procedures (Solibri / Navisworks rules)
- QA review frequency
12. Security and Access
- Information security per ISO 19650-5
- Access permissions by role
Reference ISO 19650 series, UK BIM Framework, and BS EN 17412-1 throughout.Use Case
Use at the start of a project or when responding to a client's Exchange Information Requirements (EIR) and you need to establish the BIM strategy, standards, and procedures for the delivery team.
