The NBS BIM Toolkit and Digital Plan of Work
The NBS BIM Toolkit provides a structured approach to information procurement and management aligned with the UK's Level-2 BIM requirements. It includes a free digital plan of work tool to help clients determine their information needs and to verify submissions using open data standards. The toolkit supports efficient data handling throughout project stages and aims to minimize errors while promoting collaboration within the construction supply chain.

The focus broughtabout by the requirement of the UK Government to mandate BIM Level 2 BIM by 2016 has necessitated clarity as to how data is: • Defined, • Tested • Effectively used by both the supply chain and the public client The DPOW helps support how this new ‘digital’ data is procured at ‘Level 2’ enabling clear definitions of need to the supply chain and use full data detailed to the client for use.
- 10. ENSURE EVERYONE CANPLAY THEIR PART (OPEN DATA) The selected supply base supplying data up to the tier one who is responsible for its coordination use and submission to the employer must be employed consistently to ensure data can be created and re-used, rather than repeatedly re-typed. Clearly it is incumbent on the employer to only ask for information that is needed at each stage of the project
- 11. The rate ofthis growth must be driven by the amount of information needed to answer each Key Client Question. Any more and we are incurring waste, any less and we cannot effectively answer the questions. These questions are known as the ‘Plain Language’ Questions. As the project progresses the data “Progressively Grows”

- 13. Putting too muchinformation into the model too soon may restrict both the design and supply chain options for others in the team and leads to other forms of waste with the inherent costs incurred by both the supplier and the client. It also places constraints on the supply chain to offer compliant alternative designs, offering better asset or value performance. DPOW = Goldilocks Principle
