黑洞社区

黑洞社区 services companies are advised that they have less than one week to complete the industry鈥檚 leading 鈥樷��.

This important sector-wide survey, being run by the Electrical Contractors鈥� Association (ECA) alongside the Chartered Institution of 黑洞社区 Services Engineers (CIBSE) and BSRIA, has the support of key stakeholders such as SELECT, BEAMA, the 黑洞社区 and Engineering Services Association (B&ES), and many others.

The survey is expected to inform the government, and the building services engineering sector and its stakeholders, where the sector stands in the lead-up to 鈥楤IM Level 2鈥� becoming mandatory for Whitehall-procured contracts next year. The survey results will be published in October this year.

ECA director of business services Paul Reeve said: 鈥淥ur sector-wide BIM Readiness survey continues to attract widespread support and interest. We are delighted in the response so far, and urge anyone involved in building engineering services to complete the survey as soon as possible. Support from everyone working in and around our sector is highly valued.

鈥淚t鈥檚 vital that the sector, and our stakeholders, understand how 鈥楤IM ready鈥� we are ahead of significant changes to central government procurement. When the survey results are in, they will be shared with the key players inside government and the wider industry.鈥�

CIBSE technical director Hywel Davies added: 鈥淭he MEP sector is probably the most complicated aspect of delivering better information to improve the performance and operation of government buildings.

鈥淭his survey is vital for our sector to understand how ready we really are for BIM, and what more we need to do to be fully prepared.鈥�

BSRIA鈥檚 principal consultant and BIM specialist John Sands commented: 鈥淭his survey will help us all to identify where we are in the BIM journey, and to enable us to plan the way forward to BIM maturity.

鈥淲ith the implementation of the UK Government鈥檚 Level 2 BIM mandate just a few months away, the building services industry should be in a position to make the most of the opportunities it will present.鈥�

The study, which is confidential and takes around 10 minutes to complete, will run until Tuesday 15 September. Please re to view a full list of survey supporters, and to complete the survey.
