Page 20 - BIM and ISO 19650 from a project management perspective

It is important to note that Figure 6 shows project closure happening differently:

• where a contract is design only
• where a contract includes works supervision, i.e. usually between the client, the consulting engineer and the contractor
• where a contract includes the handover

Figure 6, below, shows the relationship between these three parties: client, consulting engineer and contractor. However, each
country treats work breakdowns structures differently and they should be developed accordingly.

With Figure 6, ISO 19650 - Part 2 strongly recommends the client to prepare the tender process by specifying in the tender
documentation its requirement for the information delivery process. Consulting engineers should note the impact on the tender
documentation (Stage 3) i.e. the BEP is prepared during the bidding process in order to have a clear understanding between the
appointing and appointed party, before the commencement of the project.
