	The work builds on the Construction Leadership Council's golden thread guidance released last year and has been undertaken over several years of voluntary effort by an expert panel. While this edition of the guidance is aiming to support technical people familiar with the legislation and its golden thread requirements, the publication signals a soft launch. Stakeholders are invited to join the collaboration to adapt this standardised approach to the wider range users and personas in the built environment that need to meet golden thread duties.

	Anthony Taylor, Chair of the Building Safety Alliance, said: “I’m proud to be part of this cross-sector collaboration, which included experts from across the digital built environment , experts in information requirements, data structuring, management and labelling - our thanks in particular go to Mark Snelling and Alison Verdin, the technical authors of the prescribed documents table, nima, the BIM for social housing toolkit team, the policy teams at MHCLG and the Building Safety Regulator and the Chair of the group Gordon Mitchell who brought his experience in ISO/ and European Data standards to bare. The aim of the soft launch is to ensure that we can now adjust the standardised framework and guidance to various personas and audiences across the built environment so that we can continue to simplify the complex regulatory environment for those needing to navigate it.”		Anthony Taylor, Chair of the Building Safety Alliance, said: “I’m proud to be part of this cross-sector collaboration, which included experts from across the digital built environment , experts in information requirements, data structuring, management and labelling - our thanks in particular go to Mark Snelling and Alison Verdin, the technical authors of the prescribed documents table, nima, the BIM for social housing toolkit team, the policy teams at MHCLG and the Building Safety Regulator and the Chair of the group Gordon Mitchell who brought his experience in ISO/ and European Data standards to bare.
