Draft policy and principles for Building Information Modelling (BIM) released by the Queensland Government in February outline the framework for the use of digital modelling in the delivery and management of state infrastructure assets. Goran Gelic, Senior Associate, looks at the implications of the proposed policy for local government.

The draft policy is looking to advance the use of BIM in the regulatory areas of workplace health and safety and heritage conservation by 2020 with a more thorough application to infrastructure by 2023. The anticipated framework will apply to all Queensland Government departments, agencies and statutory authorities across the full life cycle of all new infrastructure assets (both vertical and linear). It will also apply to small, new, and existing projects where cost-effective.

Operational Readiness: Reducing Project Risk Before Day One

Operational readiness is frequently addressed too late in project lifecycles, creating avoidable risks during transition and early operations. By embedding readiness principles early—from strategy through delivery—organisations can reduce project risk, improve outcomes, and influence whole-of-life costs through clear governance, defined accountabilities, and commercial arrangements that support successful transition to sustainable operations.
