Collaboration and Interoperability
Dear Chief
Secretary
I’m sorry to tell you
there’s no money
left.
The Government Strategy
BIM
BIM = Building Information Modelling
BIM = a software enabled set of processes that
integrate all significant information on a
construction or infrastructure capital project
from inception to delivery. This requires close
collaboration between different project actors,
makes data entry more efficient and reduces
errors.
External forces - customers • United Kingdom
– Government Construction Strategy (May 2011) • “2.32 Government will require fully collaborative 3D BIM (with all project
and asset information, documentation and data being electronic) as a
minimum by 2016.”
– BIS BIM recommendations (March 2011) • Leave complexity and competition in the supply chain
• Be very specific with supply chain providers, they will only provide that which
is asked for
• Measure and make use of outputs
• Provide appropriate support infrastructure
• Take progressive steps
• Have a clear target for the ‘trailing edge’ of the industry
• North America
– BIM techniques mandated by an increasing number of: • States
• Cities
• Federal and other customers (eg GSA – General Services Administration)
– Use of ‘BIM tools’ (eg Revit) were becoming a hygiene factor for
property design
What is BIM?

CEGE – 3DIMPact Conclusions
• Complexity of the physical and logistical environment for data capture
• Improved quality of rail fitting a point cloud of track to UK standard design model to 1.5mm
• Scans of track from 9m & 15m range produce comparable results (local and combined registration processes)
• Narrows gap between engineering requirements for deformation monitoring + TLS capabilities
• Automation of the method is possible through local plane fitting and analysis of histograms provide mechanism for removal of track artefacts
• Ongoing work - performance of geometry calcs for engineers

How we are handing
over the CDE from
Capex into Opex..
But what if operators
and maintainers are
application – centric?
Data Handover Concept…... Data handover concept
BIM costs are expensive…not true, but…
BIM is complex…not true, but…
The myths
BIM costs are expensive…..not true
BIM is complex…..not true
The Blockers (however well-meaning…)
Software providers – point solutions; 3d fixated; snake oil; want to lock you in…..
Consultants – need to make it complex, often too design focused…..
Client organisations – can’t develop the opex requirements; scared to drive the
software supply chain; can’t get asset managers on side; poor procurement…..
The myths
The direct benefits we have delivered include:
• Reduced wastage (minimising clashes)
• Improved efficiencies (faster collaborative approvals)
• Reduced information loss (using only the most recent
document/drawings)
• Improved safety (model visualisations leading to better awareness)
• Reduced programme risk (through 4D analysis)
• Collaborative model transfer from designer to contractor
• Efficient asset data management (linking models directly to the
database)
The benefits
- it would all be much harder without BIM!

Institute for Digital Innovation in the Built Environment
WHY (example) Characteristics of UK built environment sector • Includes both buildings and national economic infrastructure
• Capital procurement = 6.7% GDP, 2.9m jobs, 280k businesses, 10% GDP if include Facilities & Asset Management
• Currently fragmented, low collaboration and poorly integrated information
• UK Government setting pace via Building Information Modelling
• UCL at forefront of this shift and seen as a pathfinder
• 2025 Government / Industry targets of lifetime cost and carbon reductions of 33% and 50%, + 50% time compression
• These targets require disruptive innovation – incremental innovation will be insufficient
WHAT Our vision The UCL Institute for Digital Innovation in the Built
Environment provides cutting-edge insight into the design
and use of digital systems to shape future architectural
and built environment practice. Our forward-looking
approach combines expertise across UCL — from BIM to
behaviour change, smart cities to big data and the Internet
of everything — to critically interrogate the imaginative
and disruptive potential of these systems. We are based
in The Bartlett: UCL's global faculty of the built
environment.

Let’s talk….
Institute for Digital Innovation in the Built Environment
DIBE Masters Programme
Compulsory Modules
• Principles of Asset, Project and Facilities Management
• Principles and applications of BIM
• Spatial Databases and Data Management
• Applied BIM
• Digital Life Cycle Management
• Internet of Things
Optional Modules
• Service Operations Management
• Management Concepts for Facilities
• Strategic Project and Quality Management
• BIM for Project Managers
• Data Analysis

The bad……..
• Substituting precision for accuracy
• Necessary use of ‘black box’ software
• Forgetting the principles of what and why
things are being done
• Losing the ability to brief
• Incomplete data dictionaries
• Developing new forms of Trust
The ugly……..
• Non-interoperable software
• Handling large data sets and files
• COBie
• Forcing collaboration through process and
technology
• Patchy and inconsistent IFC development
And finally……..
• Digital engineering is here to stay, so
embrace it
• Don’t forget engineering principles – digital
engineering is a facilitator not a replacement
for engineering judgement
• Collaboration is key
