The public works department (JKR) has published this strategic plan focusing on the period of 2021 to 2025. JKR is the organisation charged with the development of national infrastructure. The strategic plan looks at how they will meet the countries aims through the eyes of improving infrastructure and also how they will develop in a sustainable way. JKR is one of the technical agencies which sit under the Ministry of Works (KKR).
JKR and the strategic plan outlined in this document are developing using new digital technologies as part of an initiative to support infrastructure development. The strategic plan links with BIM by talking through the sustainability aims of JKR as well as looking at how to strengthen the approach to asset management. The plan specifically looks at assets and how the management through the whole lifecycle can be considered in the most optimized way.

FSRE (Framkvæmdasýslan Ríkiseignir) is the Government Property Agency, looking after assets, construction and facilities for government services in Iceland. In September of 2021 FSRE came into being as a result of a merger between , Framkvæmdasýsla ríkisins Government Construction Contracting Agency (FSR) and Ríkiseignir – The Government Property Agency (RE). The orgisation focuses on the achievement of multiple benefits which can be gained with a strong integrated organization and a centralized approach, these include:
– Increased efficiency in Government operations
– Added value for Users
– Financial benefits for the Treasury
– FSRE to become a leader in the Icelandic Construction industry
Implementation of BIM in FSR projects, success and benefits for designers is a document published to study and reflect on the BIM successes in Iceland. When introducing a new methodology, there are many things to keep in mind. There are many stakeholders in construction, and they are connected to many dimensions of the economy. This study is carried out with the aim of shedding light on the experience gained by the designers who have worked according to the BIM methodology in the design of FSRE projects. That knowledge will continue to be used, in the next steps of implementation, i.e. practical implementation. Today, FSRE is beginning to make demands on contractors to work according to the BIM methodology. FSRE has set an example and guided designers in implementing BIM in planning, so it is very important to look carefully at which aspects benefited the designers and which did not. It is also important to get an overview of how designers work in the BIM environment and whether FSRE’s policy is to implement BIM in its projects, whether the main driving force in the implementation of BIM or whether it is involved in other aspects

Developed by the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (Kementerian Pekerjaan Umum dan Perumahan Rakyat – PUPR) in collaboration with Institut BIM Indonesia (iBIMi), this guide was created to assist organisations in adopting and implementing BIM. It recommends that BIM adoption and implementation plans be supported and supervised by senior management and evaluated regularly in order to guide an organisation’s migration toward digitalisation.
This document can be updated and evaluated according to scale, structure and organisational size.
Norwegian State Railways (Bane NOR) is a state-owned enterprise responsible for the national railway infrastructure, subject to the Ministry of Transport and Communications. Its purpose is to provide accessible rail infrastructure and efficient and user-friendly services, including hub and freight terminal development.
Bane NOR is responsible for planning, development, management, operation and maintenance of the national railway network, traffic management and management and development of railway property. It has the operational coordination responsibility for safety work and operational responsibility for crisis management. It is initiating an improvement programme to standardise deliveries and information flow of development projects upon handover to the operating organisation.
The purpose of this requirement document is to specify what information will be produced and provided in connection with the deliverables in a recent major road/rail project (FRE16). It was a prerequisite that information created as part of this project should in a later phase be able to be managed and operated by Bane NOR and the road organisations operational applications. The information should be delivered in order to set a standard that the industry can work to on future projects. In addition, the contractor is responsible for providing the necessary documentation together with the deliverables, and in accordance with the Contract.
The requirement document covers the following specifications:
- Definitions
- Requirements for model structures
- Requirements for information content on objects in models, related to the work and delivery.
The Norwegian Public Roads Administration (Statens vegvesen – SVV) is a government agency responsible for national and county public roads in Norway. This includes planning, construction and operation of the national and county road networks, driver training and licensing, vehicle inspection, and subsidies to car ferries. The agency is led by the Directorate of Public Roads (Vegdirektoratet), and is subordinate to the Ministry of Transport and Communications. It is divided into five regions and 30 districts, which are subordinate to the directorate.
The Norwegian Public Roads Administration decided to revise and merge the manuals V770 Model basis and R700 Drawing Basis into a new guideline. It will be mandatory to follow the methods described in the new guideline. This means that 3D modelling based on quality-assured basic data becomes the norm in all road projects. The agency shall also focus on standardising information in the models, and courses and training materials will be developed for these methods.
Handbook V770 is a guidance document specifying the requirements for basic data and models. It sets requirements for how basic data and models are to be ordered, prepared and delivered in road projects. This handbook should contribute to:
- Clear quality requirements for basic data
- 3D engineering in all subjects
- Standardised description of objects
- Standardised description of models
- Use of open, standardised formats
- Use of models as a working basis in the construction phase
- Standardisation of final documentation from project phases.
Statsbygg is the Norwegian state’s key advisor in construction and real estate matters, including property owners, managers and developers.
All projects in Statsbygg are, unless otherwise agreed, submitted in accordance with the requirements of Statsbygg’s BIM manual. Machine validation of model files makes it possible to assess the progress of model and quality of model deliverables related to the project phase.
A system called SIMBA compares reviews models against Statsbygg’s BIM requirements. SIMBA X refers to SIMBA requirement set templates for existing buildings. It is intended for use when buildings have already been built and there is a need to create an object model (BIM) of the built asset. The source of data for such a model can be various forms of scan (laser, photogrammetry), relevant DWG drawing sets, various forms of FDV documentation, surveys and inspections or a combination of these elements.
The purpose of creating the model may be general so that BIM can be used to provide information about the building or it may be due to specific needs related to management, in particular land and volume management, ongoing operation and planned maintenance, or disposal and circular economy. SIMBA X is the “base” requirement set, which assumes that the only source of data for creating the model (BIM) is a scan. It contains requirements for the correct use of object types, and a few selected properties that can be set on the basis of the scan.

A system called SIMBA compares reviews models against Statsbygg’s BIM requirements. SIMBA 2.0 contains a completely new set of requirements (claim set templates), regardless of requirements in previous BIM manuals (although relevant requirements from previous documents in many cases have been continued), and the claims sets are set up only for intended use against IFC4 models.
The set of requirements also includes a new methodology for communicating the need for information on given objects between the disciplines. In addition, a number of requirements have been added for the purpose of being able to reuse information in the BIM model throughout the project and the building’s lifecycle.
