Why should you use PD 19650‑0?
The publication of BS EN ISO 19650‑1 and BS EN ISO 19650‑2 represents a significant step forward in standardizing information management requirements on projects using BIM (building information modeling) within an internationally agreed set of concepts and principles.
The purpose of this transition guidance is to help the readers and users of the UK standards familiarize themselves with the ISO standards as quickly and as easily as possible, and to move away from the UK standards that have now been superseded. As such, this transition guidance is not aimed at those who are brand new to these standards of information management.
The main body of this Published Document uses BS EN ISO 19650‑1 and BS EN ISO 19650‑2 terminology wherever possible with existing BS 1192:2007+A2:2016 and PAS 1192‑2:2013 terms in parentheses where appropriate. This is to help readers become accustomed to the new terms.
PD 19650‑0:2019 will make it easy for you to get accustomed to the BS EN ISO 19650 series, which will improve the efficiency and understanding of business standards within your organization
