If you have been appointed on a project with BIM requirements, one of the first things your client will expect is a BIM Execution Plan. Yet for many teams, the BEP is either produced as a tick-box exercise or left too late. This guide explains what a BEP is, why it matters, and exactly what it should contain.
What is a BIM Execution Plan?
A BIM Execution Plan (BEP) is a document produced by the project delivery team that sets out how they will meet the client’s information requirements throughout the project. Under ISO 19650, the BEP is the appointed party’s formal response to the Employer’s Information Requirements (EIR).
Pre-Appointment vs Post-Appointment BEP
- Pre-Appointment BEP — Submitted as part of your tender response.
- Post-Appointment BEP — Developed after appointment with the full project team.
What Should a BEP Include?
