p P – BIM Management Plans
Preface, Chair BIM Management Plans Working Group (Chris Needham)
p1 P1 – What is a BIM Management Plan, and why should we use one?
A BIM Management Plan sets out who will do what, when, how and why, to achieve the project’s goals. It details who, what, when, how and why with respect to BIM‐based project delivery. Under most current procurement methods, the BIM Management Plan is prepared after project contributors have been formally appointed.
p2 P2 – What should be addressed within a BIM Management Plan?
The BIM Management Plan addresses how all the key elements of a project – people, program, tools, processes and protocols – will be organised and managed to achieve the project goals. The particulars must respond to the client requirements, project needs, team capacity/skill/expertise, procurement method, and other project‐specific circumstances.
p3 P3 – How should you prepare and apply a BIM Management Plan?
The process of preparing and applying a BIM Management Plan is as important as the Plan itself. No one person can single‐handedly know all the needs of the project for its entire lifecycle (and on the first attempt). Neither can they determine all of the appropriate measures to meet them. A collaborative and iterative approach is necessary.
