CIC Scope of Services

Frances Paterson & Tony Broomhead

Why?

• mismatch between scopes for different disciplines

• lack of definition /clarity of roles / gaps• emphasis on the conditions (the ‘legal bits’)

rather than the services (what’s to be done)• Industry standard contracts but no scopes

Definition

Roles• Look at roles (not disciplines)

• Participants:– consultants– specialists

– contractor etc

SoS can be used whatever the procurement route or

contractual responsibilities

Tasks

• tasks that are, or may be , required on all projects• tables / CIC stages• choose tasks appropriate for project• allocate them to appropriate participants• to produce contract documents

Definition is BIM

BIM is Definition from inception to use

Definition + Construction = Project

Definition Construction

Consultants Contractor.

Definition is the sameRoles are the same

• Clear roles which can be allocated• Well defined stages for refinement of definition• Defined management framework

– Management procedures (BIM protocol)– Risk – Value project specific

SoS framework

1 Preparation Project objectives, business need, Client priorities, aspirations

Strategic Brief: function, use, scale, location, quality, cost, value, time, safety,

health, environment, sustainability

Stages

use of BIM

2 Concept detailed brief, scope, scale, form, budget

Initial design criteria, design options, cost estimates, selection of preferred option

First alignment of Brief + Design + Budget

3 Design Development detailed form, function and cost plan

Components: overall size, typical detail, performance, outline specification,

co-ordination that affects size and performance

4 Production Information final detailing, sizing, positioning, specification of all systems and components enabling manufacture or

construction

5 MI&C Information fabrication, manufacture, installation, verification testing, O&M manuals, as built information

Integrated scope for all

BIM is Definition of the project from inception to use–SoS provides the framework foundation

BIM is collaboration, integration and co-ordination across contract boundaries

–SOS gives the clarity of responsibilities

BIM requires flexibility of approach; projects are different–SOS gives organisational and management framework but with bespoke project protocols

The Scope for BIM

Next steps

• Finalise modifications to SoS for BIM projects

• Industry standard for level of information in Model at each stage.

• Recommendations on Ownership of information in Model
