As Scotland moves towards a digital builtenvironment, BIM is seen as a key tool for the Scottish construction industry going forward. BIM uses digital technology to improve the sharing and analysisof data within both the construction and operational phases of projects. By improving data management and collaboration within projects, the industry willbe supported in delivering greater efficiencies through the design, construction and operational stages of a project. In order to implement BIM Level 2, the plan considers the current BIM maturity of the Scottish public sector, the criteria to establish which projects shouldadopt BIM level 2 by April 2017 and finally how this will be implemented through a combination of focused actions including: pathfinder projects, guidance,awareness and training. The plan adopts the approach that the implementation of BIM within Scotland should align and build upon the existing BritishStandards and draw from work already undertaken nationally and internationally.. The plan has been divided into 5 horizons which encompass specific workstreams and is summarised below: Executive Summary (Cont) The implementation plan sets out a framework for the implementation of BIM level 2. Aspects of this plan will be developed in further detail during eachhorizon and will respond to feedback and consultations with stakeholders. The key objectives for this implementation plan will be to:- Provide a roadmap to the implementation of BIM Level 2 by April 2017 on Public Sector Projects.Address the recommendations of the Review of Procurement in Construction report in relation to BIM.Support the public sector and demonstrate the benefits of adopting BIM .Provide experienced leadership and direction nationally, in the adoption of BIM for public sector projects within Scotland.Prepare and publish guidance for procuring authorities to better equip them in adopting BIM Level 2.Demonstrate to procuring authorities the benefits of adopting BIM. In considering the key horizons to deliver BIM, the diagram below outlines the high level programme. 1.0 Horizon 1–Plan & Launch Horizon 1 has been divided into the following 6 workstreams:- The BIM strategy–High level strategy approved by the Construction Review Delivery Group.Scottish BIM Implementation Plan–Detailed approach to implementation of BIM Level 2.Assessment of Current BIM Maturity–Assess current BIM capability within Scottish public sector through capability questionnaire.Project Launch–Publicise BIM implementation and deliver launch forums.Define BIM Level 2 Requirements–Launch BIM Level 2 definition aligned to the Scottish public sector.Define Qualifying Projects–Clarify which projects will adopt BIM Level 2 by April 17. 1.1BIM strategy The BIM Implementation Strategy provides an overarching approach for the implementation of BIM Level 2. The strategy also sets out how the BIMrecommendations within the Review of Public Sector Procurement in Construction will be addressed. The strategy has been approved by theConstruction Review Delivery Group who report to the Ministerial Strategic Group on Procurement. 1.2Development of the Implementation Plan The implementation plan sets out a structured approach for delivering the BIM strategy and how BIM Level 2 will be implemented. This plan will bedeveloped in further detail during each horizon. A detailed programme will be refined and developed during horizon 1. Key dates are as follows:- Progress against the delivery of the plan will be monitored b
