ISO 19650 - Organisation and Digitisation of Information about Buildings and Civil Engineering Works (BIM)
ISO 19650 is the international standard series for Building Information Modelling (BIM) and managing information over the whole lifecycle of a built asset. ISO 19650-1:2018 covers concepts and principles, ISO 19650-2:2018 covers the delivery phase, ISO 19650-3:2020 covers the operational phase, and ISO 19650-5:2020 covers security-minded information management. The standard establishes the common data environment (CDE), information delivery processes, and roles/responsibilities for BIM projects. Mandated for public sector projects in the UK and increasingly adopted globally.
