CIC Webinar on BIM - Enhancement of "CIC BIM Standards - General" Public Consultation

The CIC had appointed A.C.I.D. as the Consultant to prepare an enhancement of the "CIC Building Information Modelling (BIM) Standards - General". This enhanced "CIC BIM Standards - General" aims to be adopted by architects, engineers, surveyors, contractors and other industry practitioners for the construction industry in Hong Kong.

The Consultant has studied and compared the current local and international practices to ensure the enhanced "CIC BIM Standards - General" to:

1. Satisfy industry requirements;
2. Align with the approach of information management using BIM as mentioned in ISO 19650;
3. Include all necessary information to satisfy the requirements of ISO 19650-2, in particular for those to be used as local annex for Hong Kong; and
4. Pave the way for the Government's initiatives/roadmap for promoting and fostering the adoption of BIM in Hong Kong.

The project was commenced on 20 May 2020 and the 2nd draft of enhanced "CIC BIM Standards - General" has been prepared, our current step is to collect and consider views from the public. As such, you are cordially invited to attend the Public Consultation webinar and provide your views and comments on the draft Standards.
