BSI Kitemark™ certification for BIM Software

With a wide range of BIM software available, choosing the right solution for your business can be a difficult choice. That’s why this BSI Kitemark scheme has been developed to enable software vendors to differentiate their products, ensure they deliver a customer-centric service, and to demonstrate alignment with BIM standards. It also helps users with their selection process.

BSI Kitemark certification for BIM Software has been created to assess the functionality, security and support of BIM software.

This Kitemark certification scheme can enable both software vendors and software users to build resilience.

For software vendors who can achieve certification:

• Market differentiation – to stand out in a competitive market
• Client-centricity – by ensuring a customer-centric approach is adopted by the vendor as they interact with their customers
• Independent and impartial certification – building trust with your clients

For software users, the ability to identify software that has achieved Kitemark certification can help you to:

• Facilitate your software procurement process – giving assurance
• De-risk your projects – using trusted software that supports your needs
• Save money, time and protect your business – ensuring your software maximizes your information management efficiency and accuracy

To achieve Kitemark certification software will need to be assessed beyond core-functionality needed with BIM. Our assessors will also need to examine the following areas:

• Software security
• Software support
• Software development
• Software resilience
• Business management

BSI has been leading the way in the certification of BIM and digital construction, and the BSI Kitemark for BIM Software forms part of BSI’s portfolio of BIM solutions including standards, training, verification and certification.
