Material Detail

This document presents a system for the classification of the Uses of BIM.  This classification system provides a common language for the Uses of Building Information Modeling (or BIM Uses) that can be leveraged to communicate the precise purpose and context of implementing BIM on a capital facility project.  A BIM Use is defined as a method of applying Building Information Modeling during a facility’s lifecycle to achieve one or more specific objectives.

The BIM Project Execution Planning Guide provides a structured method to plan the implementation of Building Information Modeling on a project.  The procedure includes the following four steps:

1. Identify high-value BIM uses during the project planning, design, construction, and operational phases
2. Design the BIM execution process by creating process maps
3. Define the BIM deliverables in the form of information exchanges
4. Develop the infrastructure in the form of contracts, communication procedures, technology, and quality control to support the implementation
