ISO 19650 Building Information Modelling (BIM)

The ISO 19650 standard is an international standard for managing information over the whole life cycle of a built asset using building information modelling (BIM). It contains all the same principles and high-level requirements as UK BIM Framework and is closely aligned with the current UK 1192 standards.

BS EN ISO 19650-1: Organization and digitization of information about buildings and civil engineering works, including building information modelling -- Information management using building information modelling: Concepts and principles.

BS EN ISO 19650-2: Organization and digitization of information about buildings and civil engineering works, including building information modelling -- Information management using building information modelling: Delivery phase of the assets.

BS EN ISO 19650-3:2020 Organization and digitization of information about buildings and civil engineering works, including building information modelling (BIM). Information management using building information modelling. Operational phase of the assets.

BS EN ISO 19650-4:2022 Organization and digitization of information about buildings and civil engineering works, including building information modelling (BIM). Information management using building information modelling - Information exchange

BS EN ISO 19650-5:2020: Organization and digitization of information about buildings and civil engineering works, including building information modelling (BIM). Information management using building information modelling. Security-minded approach to information management.

These standards are founded on the UK’s standards for information management using building information modelling, namely BS 1192:2007 + A2:2016 and PAS 1192-2:2013. The principles remain as per these standards with terminology changes being preserved via the UK National Forewords and National Annex.

The following document was also published alongside the standards:

• PD 19650-0 - UK Transition Guidance, which will along with the UK National Forewords and National Annex aid implementation of the ISO standards in the UK.

BSI has been at the forefront of BIM since the start, developing a range of BIM standards covering all the key elements from design, information management, facilities management, and security. We continually work with the industry to develop and evolve the suite of standards to cover all life cycle aspects – from design to final decommissioning. That’s why we’re best placed to help you understand the standard.

Whether you are new to BIM or looking at transitioning over from your current PAS 1192-2 certification to the new ISO, we can help you through this journey to ISO 19650 certification:

• Undertake a gap analysis with us against the draft, this will help you prepare for the ISO
• On publication, we will provide a collection of supporting documents, including  a mapping document to help you understand the changes
• We will be hosting webinars with our BIM experts where you will have the chance to ask your questions and we will brief you on what’s changed and how to transition
• Book your transition assessment – although the launch date is yet to be released, if you’d be interested in being among the first to meet the new ISO, please express your interest with us via BIMpilots@bsigroup.com
