Digital Builder Implications and Learnings for all from BIM Mandates in Europe
As more BIM mandates are being put in place around the world, impacted organizations are working to ensure they are BIM compliant—while many in the construction industry are still trying to figure out not just if BIM and other digital tools are right for them, but how to begin even implementing them in their business operations.
Digital tools are transforming the way construction companies are operating, demonstrating countless benefits to adopting them, but there are still many unanswered questions for companies and contractors who are trying to find the most cost-effective strategies for managing all these new innovations and requirements.
That’s where our guests come in. David Purdon, Technical Director at Diatec, and Marek Suchocki, Head of Industry Associations Strategy at Autodesk, are two industry veterans who have seen first-hand the rollout of Europe’s BIM mandates and how companies are responding. In this episode, they will break down some of the myths around BIM mandates, what the true intent of the mandates are, and much more.
We discuss:
- The rollout of BIM mandates in the UK faced challenges in managing the information exchange process
- The complex intersection of BIM modeling and the production supply chain
- How BIM modeling and technology integration ensures the longevity of construction organizations
- The difficulty many organizations face in balancing the long-term vision of digital tools with their immediate needs
- Why BIM allows organizations to derive better value from public construction investments
- How to get started on your BIM journey if you’re impacted by a BIM mandate.
