David WILSON Virtual Project Delivery Bechtel Corporation Reston, VA, USA djwilson@bechtel.com

David Wilson received his BS in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Utah and his ME in Engineering Management from Washington State University. He has nearly 20 years of project delivery experience.

The concept of Level Of Development (LOD) for Building Information Models (BIM) is well developed in many countries including the United States and the United Kingdom. Current LOD attributes focus on the architectural and engineering attributes of the modelled objects, such as material grade, finish, colour, weight, power consumption, etc.

This paper describes a proposed enhancement to expand LODs to include 1) procurement, the purchasing of material and equipment, as well as 2) construction planning and execution activities. Examples of the proposed Procurement and Construction LODs from level 100 to level 400 are given.
