Project name: NATSPEC BIM Portal.

Completion/expected completion date: On-going.

Main participating organisations: Industry experts as required.

Project goals and objectives:

• To provide free access to downloadable NATSPEC BIM documents.
• To provide a reliable source of relevant BIM resources, including tools and educational tutorials.
• To provide details of BIM research and development projects that NATSPEC is associated with.

Context: There are numerous websites, blogs, etc devoted to BIM, and no lack of information about BIM in general. For industry stakeholders wanting to implement BIM, finding relevant information can be time-consuming. The NATSPEC BIM Portal developed in 2011 selectively provides information for this purpose, with a focus on open standards that can be applied regardless of the software used.

Proposed deliverables: Information resources, downloadable documents and tools.

Planned 2014 activity: On-going updating and development of content.

Expected audience: All design, construction and facility management stakeholders.
