Government says it will develop new standard for construction to 鈥渕aintain global leadership鈥�
The government has committed to developing and rolling out the next level of BIM standards - BIM level three - in policy documents published as part of the Budget yesterday.
The Budget document says: 鈥淭he government will develop the next digital standard for the construction sector - building information modelling 3 - to save owners of built assets billions of pounds a year in unnecessary costs, and maintain the UK鈥檚 global leadership in digital construction.鈥�
The government launched a mandate for all centrally-procured projects to be delivered using BIM level two four years ago, kickstarting a digital revolution in construction, but there had been concern it would drop its commitment to the policy after the BIM level two mandate comes into force next month on 4 April.
