4.1 Principles
Asset information models (AIM) and project information models (PIM) are the structured repositories of information needed for making decisions during the whole life cycle of a built environment asset.This includes the design and construction of new assets, refurbishment of existing assets, and the operation and maintenance of an asset. It should be expected that the amount of information stored in information models, and the different purposes it will be used for, will mostly increase during project delivery and asset management.
AIM and PIM can include structured and unstructured information. Examples of structured information include geometrical models, schedules and databases. Examples of unstructured information include documentation, video clips and sound recordings. Physical sources of information, such as soil and product samples, should be managed using the information management process described in this document through appropriate cross-references, for example sample numbers.
Most projects involve work on an existing asset, even if this is a previously undeveloped site. These projects should include some pre-existing asset information to support the development of the project brief and be available for lead appointed parties working on the project.
Information management processes within this document include the transfer of relevant information between an AIM and a PIM at the start and end of a project.
Asset and project information has substantial value to appointing, lead appointed and appointed parties involved in asset management and project delivery. This includes where no formal appointments exist. Appointing, lead appointed and appointed parties include the owners, operators and managers of built assets, and those delivering design and construction projects. Asset and project information is also valuable to policymakers, regulators, investors, insurers and other external parties.
4.2 Information management according to the ISO 19650 series
The recommendations and requirements for information management in the ISO 19650 series are based on appointing, lead appointed and appointed parties working collaboratively together, and all parties should participate in the implementation of the ISO 19650 series.
Information management can be represented as a sequence of maturity stages, shown as Stages 1, 2 and 3 in Figure 1. This Figure shows that development of standards, advances in technology and more sophisticated forms of information management all combine to deliver increasing business benefit.
The ISO 19650 series has application mainly at Stage 2 maturity, but also can be partly applied at Stages 1 and 3.
Stage 2 maturity is also identified as“BIM according to the ISO 19650 series". This is where a mixture of manual and automated information management processes are used to generate a federated information model. The information model includes all information containers delivered by task teams in relation to an asset or a project.ISO 19650-1 pdf download.
