What is this document about?
The publication of BS EN ISO 19650‑1 and BS EN ISO 19650‑2 represents a significant step forward in standardizing information management requirements on projects using BIM (building information modelling) within an internationally agreed set of concepts and principles.
These principles and requirements are clearly recognizable from the UK’s existing standards:
BS 1192:2007+A2:2016 and PAS 1192‑2:2013, especially when one looks past the necessary changes in terminology and language that were necessary to turn UK documents into international documents.
This transition guidance has been prepared specifically to help the existing users of BS 1192 and PAS 1192‑2 understand any changes made between the UK’s existing standards, and the ISO documents which are to replace them.
