Enriching Building Information Modeling Models through Information Delivery Specification

The efficient acquisition and dissemination of information are crucial in building information modeling (BIM). Current BIM models face significant challenges, including inadequate modeling techniques, poorly defined information requirements, and low interoperability. These issues result in poor information quality and complicate the transition from information acquisition to model processing. Public authorities often provide documentation in various formats, requiring manual transfer to software, which is error-prone and burdensome. This process is particularly difficult for small and medium enterprises lacking resources and knowledge. To address these issues, the IDS (Information Delivery Specification) Collab Tool is under development. This tool aims to automate the import of requirements into authoring software, perform automated compliance checks, and enhance interoperability among stakeholders. It will assist designers in providing accurate information according to requirements through the IDS standard, improving model quality and efficiency from early design stages. Adapting BIM models to specific project requirements and aligning new IDS capabilities with traditional industry practices remain significant challenges. Preliminary evaluations indicate the tool’s potential to significantly improve workflow efficiency and compliance in BIM modeling. However, broader awareness and adoption of the IDS standard are needed. Further research and refinement are essential to fully realize the benefits of digital tools in revolutionizing design and construction practices.
