Bim4Housing UK

BIM4Housing's vision is for all stakeholders, in the provision of housing, to maximise the value added by Better Information Management. We are volunteers from across the industry focussing on the Information element of BIM and how it can address the quality, cost, programme and safety challenges we are all wrestling with.
BIM 4 Housing is a UK BIM initiative chaired by BIM veteran, George Stevenson and with director, Richard Freer. We are a non-profit body targeting the ‘Information’ element of BIM.

Our vision is for all stakeholders to use Better Information Management to deliver safer, greener residential accommodation that is easier to maintain.

We have a lot going on in the UK, with substantial legislative changes being introduced to improve building safety and prevent another Grenfell Towers disaster.

The traditional ways risk has been managed i.e. transferring it down the supply chain – is finished and insurers are adjusting premiums accordingly. This is providing an impetus to accelerate the asset aspect of BIM and find ways to improve the quality of information about the products and materials that are installed. This is equally useful to inform embedded carbon. BIM4Housing is a collaboration of firms and people passionate about solving problems through applied technology and processes.

We provide a meeting point for people passionate about making change happen. We all work on a voluntary basis, to help improve the industry and to influence its future direction.

Additionally, BIM4Housing has been supporting the L&Q/DLUCH Golden Thread Initiative to help advise what information should be collected and how buildings can be safer.
