“BSI is aware that the UK industry has benefitted from free downloads of the BIM suite of standards since 2013; this has been due to the provision of government sponsorship to enable the faster adoption of BIM standards in the UK. As the UK transitions to an information management framework according to ISO 19650, the government funding priorities have shifted. The result is that there will now be a charge to purchase the remaining UK BIM documents in line with BSI’s pricing policy.”
