BIMSafe NZ Update October 2022

Welcome to the third newsletter of the BIMsafe NZ Project. 

We are approaching one year in, and significant milestones achieved are;

• Formed an advisory group representing 15 different professional organisations
• Published an international Literature review
• Contracted authors to write the guidelines
• Initiated research papers into the different topics to be covered in the guidelines
• Launched a nationwide survey to record and analyse the current awareness and usage in BIM models for Safety
• Started a video resource to be utilised in conjunction with the Guidelines
• Received substantial media coverage and engagement with the construction sector

The next initiative is the Build Smarter event at the Christchurch Art Gallery, on November 3rd, 11:30am. This will feature presentations of several innovations in the construction sector around the use of technology.

This promises to be a very informative and insightful event, and anyone with a role in the construction industry looking for new ways to work would benefit from attending.

Regards,

Paul Duggan

In order to set a benchmark and measure the industry’s progress over the next three years, we need accurate data from all stakeholders in both horizontal and vertical facilities projects in New Zealand to enable greater reach and impact across the industry.

Please help us bring about change and take the short survey here or scan the QR code. Please also share this with colleagues and associates and encourage them to take part. Everyone’s feedback matters.
