Alan over at The Revit Learning Curve has posted details about the UK Govenments Construction Strategy report, which was released last month.
Here is alan's post.
"....Building Information Modelling (BIM) is now emerging as a common requirement on both public and private sector projects alike. Only recently, the government has reaffirmed its commitment to make savings of at least 20% across all public sector construction projects and that BIM is to be mandated to help drive more efficient cost benchmarking.
Standards are currently being drawn up with a view to roll out BIM on public projects in 2012...."
