    006: BIM Execution Plan

    Welcome to the Building a Digital Future podcast. In the last episode, we looked specifically at the softwares used in digital construction, and how they need to be set up to be a functional piece of kit for the business. In this episode, we’re going to look at why digital construction is relevant and important to investors and developers. I’ll use a developer's perspective to illustrate how integrating digital construction practices ensures better information flow, aligns with business KPIs, and ultimately drives forward the five pillars of BIM. I’ll also discuss how digital construction ensures that everyone involved in a project is aligned, tailored specifically to the type of building being developed. I’ll touch on the significance of documents like the Organizational Information Requirement (OIR) and Asset Information Requirement (AIR), which help developers collect and manage essential data for various building types.

    005: Setting Up Your Software 

    Welcome to the Building a Digital Future podcast. In the last episode, we were talking about the practical preparation needed so that each organisation is ready to collaborate and coordinate with other stakeholders in the project. In this episode, we're going to look specifically at the software and what that needs to look like to be a functional piece of kit for the business. We’ll cover why it’s important to ensure the naming conventions are right and that the geo coordination is set up correctly so that all stakeholders can use the software interchangeably. I’ll also cover how setting up your software correctly can lead to a smoother workflow, and how it will contribute to being BIM compliant. Let’s start Building a Digital Future.
