Client Pre-tender Project Stage
- Information Requirements
What is Pre-Tender?
- WHAT WOULD A CLIENT NEED TO DO BEFORE THE TENDER STAGE?
- WHAT DOCUMENTATION WOULD NEED TO BE PUT IN PLACE?
- ARE THERE ANY REQUIREMENTS FOR FUNCTIONS AND ROLES?
BIM Activities Pre-Tender
- DEFINE PROCESSES IN PLACE
- ALL PROJECT DOCUMENTATION CREATED AND PUT IN PLACE. TO BE SHARED TO ALL SUPPLIERS.
Organizational Information Requirements (OIR)
- Highest-level expressions of need for information within the organization
Asset Information Requirements (AIR)
- What specific information does the organization need to know for each supply contract to answer its OIRs?
Project Information Requirements (PIR)
- PIR are identified from both the project management process and the asset management process
Employer Information Requirements (EIR)
- Once the AIRs are defined it is now recommended to collate the specific EIR for Assets
- Commercial considerations
- Management considerations
- Technical information needs
Example Employer's Information Requirements
Software Platforms
- Software they would like their suppliers to use. (Revit?)
- File Formats which would align to a BIM Use. (.Rvt, .Nwd or IFC?]
- **Software Updates and developments which may impact the project, problems to be considered, thoroughjy)
Data Exchange
- Their preferred Data exchange file format.
- When data exchanges are required.
- COBie specific Requirements
Coordinates
Training
- BIM Maturity or regional requirements (could be UK BIM Level 2 training or HK CIC BIM Standards for example).
- Software - for modelling or any BIM Use.
- Project management & information Management
- Identification of Roles such as
- BIM Manager,
- Technician and
- Coordination.
The BIM Execution Planning Process
A Summary on the stages of development & update to the BIM Execution Plan (BEP)
A BIM Execution Plan (BEP) shall be developed by the supplier containing:
- Assigned roles, responsibilities and authorities
- Standards, methods and procedures
- A resource master information delivery index aligned with the project hflronram
Pre-Appointment BIM Execution Plan
- Prepared during the tender period
- To help the employer (client) select the best supplier
- Can the supplier meet the information requirements?
- Broad approach to answering the EIR
- Specific responses to requests for proposals from employer
- Presenting the capability of the extended supply chain
- Competition is not just between one lead supplier and another, it is between their whole supply chains
- Some of the BEP may be asked for during pre-qualification
Design and Definition Stage
Tender Stage BIM
Post - BEP requirements
- Management
- Planning and documentation
- The standard method and procedure
- The IT Solutions
- Supply Chain Assessment
- Supply chain capability summary form
- Supplier BIM assessment form
- Supplier IT assessment form
- Supply resource assessment form
BIM Uses + Processes (Definition + Design Stage)
BIM Execution Plan
Pre-contract BIM project execution plan
- DELIVERED PRIOR TO APPOINTMENT OF MAIN CONTRACTOR OR DESIGN TEAM
Post-contract BIM project execution plan
- DELIVERED FOLLOWING APPOINTMENT OF MAIN CONTRACTOR OR DESIGN TEAM
Similarity between Pre and Post
- Project information
- Information required by the EIR
- Major project milestones
- PIM delivery strategy
- Existing legacy data use (defined by EIR)
