BCA BIM Roadmap & BCA's International Panel of BIM Experts
BCA formulated a five-year organisation to move the cerebration business towards acceptation of the Building Information Modelling (BIM), which brings most greater integration and cooperation between developers, designers, builders and fabricators crossways the cerebration value chain.
Under the five-year plan, BCA has ordered a direct of effort the cerebration business to ingest BIM widely by 2015.
BCA hosted five internationally renowned experts from Germany, Norway, South Korea, the United Kingdom and the United States, who make up BCA's International Panel of Experts for BIM(IPE-BIM). From 31 October to 3 November 2011, the Panel met BCA and leading members of the industry to discuss a range of topics about expanding and promoting the construction industry's use of BIM. The experts said they were impressed by Singapore's BIM roadmap. The experts made several recommendations, including setting up a national digital library of standard building components to make modeling easier, and using social media to promote BIM to younger construction professionals. The public sector must play a critical role in leading the adoption of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in the building and construction sector. The need for more collaboration between public sectors of different countries in sharing best procurement policies, standards and processes. These are the view of the experts to transform the industry through a BIM roadmap in singapore.
On 03 November 2011, I was attended the seminar on BIM by BCA's IPE "Innovate, Integrate & Transform with BIM". I found an exciting programme in the seminar with BCA's IPE experts from overseas sharing their insights into how BIM is chaining the industry.
After lunch time, we gained valuable tips from experienced BIM practitioners on how they leveraged on BIM to improve their workflow and business process.

BIM BUZZ@Singapore 2011
Introduction
BCA and buildingSMART Singapore jointly organised the first international 48-hour BIM competition for both Professional and Student categories on 8 September 2011.
Participants were given information pertaining to the project on the day of the competition itself and given 48 hrs to come out with a BIM design that can demonstrate integration and collaboration across the construction value chain as much as possible. Participants were also given points for demonstration of sustainable design features.
The theme for both the Professional and Student categories is “BIM for Sustainable Design”.
Competition brief
Within the 48-hours competition, teams are required to provide the detailed BIM model and
documentation as much as possible. These included architectural and structural designs, building services designs and calculations, sun and wind analysis, energy analysis and consumption data, constructability analysis, model checking, among others.
Professional category
There are 16 teams in total.
12 teams are using REVIT and 4 teams are using ARCHICAD.
The winners are as following;
Best use of BIM for integration and collaboration>>>
Woh Hup (Private) Limited, Singapore
Best use of BIM for buildability, sustainability and constructability>>>
Aidea Team, the Philippines
Best use of BIM for multi-disciplinary use and interoperability>>>BIMER Team, WSP Group, Hong Kong
Student category
There are 21 teams in total.
20 teams are using REVIT and only Perfume1(Taiwan) team is using ARCHICAD.
The Top 3 for the Best use of BIM for sustainable design are as following;
1 - HVABIMLab, the Netherlands
2 - Team 1, Singapore
3 - Khuteambr, South Korea
