CIC Scope of Services Frances Paterson & Tony Broomhead
Why? mismatch between scopes for different disciplines lack of definition /clarity of roles / gaps emphasis on the conditions (the ‘legal bits’) rather than the services (what’s to be done) Industry standard contracts but no scopes
Definition
Roles Look at roles (not disciplines) Participants: – consultants – specialists – contractor etc SoS can be used whatever the procurement route or contractual responsibilities
Tasks tasks that are, or may be, required on all projects tables / CIC stages choose tasks appropriate for project allocate them to appropriate participants to produce contract documents
Definition is BIM BIM is Definition from inception to use Definition + Construction = Project DefinitionConstruction Consultants Contractor. Definition is the same Roles are the same
Clear roles which can be allocated Well defined stages for refinement of definition Defined management framework –Management procedures (BIM protocol) –Risk –Value project specific SoS framework
1 Preparation Project objectives, business need, Client priorities, aspirations Strategic Brief: function, use, scale, location, quality, cost, value, time, safety, health, environment, sustainability Stages use of BIM
2 Concept detailed brief, scope, scale, form, budget Initial design criteria, design options, cost estimates, selection of preferred option First alignment of Brief + Design + Budget
3 Design Development detailed form, function and cost plan Components: overall size, typical detail, performance, outline specification, co-ordination that affects size and performance
4 Production Information final detailing, sizing, positioning, specification of all systems and components enabling manufacture or construction
5 MI&C Information fabrication, manufacture, installation, verification testing, O&M manuals, as built information DataValue Element ID j Element typePump 4j-b Part No – 2323 ManufacturerPrestige Net weight1.87t Service interval5,000 hours O&M RefTTA-4 Programme codeWP4-L2-C34 Install date Commission date Residual risks4a/d, 6, 7, 9b

Integrated scope for all
BIM is Definition of the project from inception to use –SoS provides the framework foundation BIM is collaboration, integration and co-ordination across contract boundaries –SOS gives the clarity of responsibilities BIM requires flexibility of approach; projects are different –SOS gives organisational and management framework but with bespoke project protocols
The Scope for BIM
Next steps Finalise modifications to SoS for BIM projects Industry standard for level of information in Model at each stage. Recommendations on Ownership of information in Model
