The OmniClass Construction Classification System, also known as OmniClass™ or OCCS, is a classification system that is used for the organising and retrieving of information for the construction industry. It is the North American equivalent of Uniclass2.

The purpose of OmniClass is to provide a standardised basis for classifying information created and used by the architectural, engineering and construction industry in North America. This comprises the full facility lifecycle from conception to demolition or reuse, and includes all the different types of construction involved in the built environment. It is useful for Building Information Modeling (BIM), organising reports and object libraries.

Similar to Uniclass2, the concept for OmniClass is derived from internationally-accepted standards developed by the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) and the International Construction Information Society (ICIS) subcommittees and workgroups from the early-1990s to the present.

OmniClass comprises 15 tables, some of which emphasise the architecture sector (buildings and landscapes), and some of which also serve civil and/or process engineering. Each table can be used independently to classify a particular type of information, or entries on it can be combined with entries on other tables to classify more complex subjects.

The tables are as follows:

* OmniClass Introduction.
* Construction Entities by Function – Table 11.
* Construction Entities by Form – Table 12.
* Spaces by Function – Table 13.
* Spaces by Form – Table 14.
* Elements (includes Designed Elements) – Table 21.
* Work Results – Table 22.
* Products – Table 23.
* Phases – Table 31.
* Services – Table 32.
* Disciplines – Table 33.
* Organisational Roles – Table 34.
* Tools – Table 35.
* Information – Table 36.
* Materials – Table 41.
* Properties – Table 49.

As the basis of the tables, OmniClass incorporates other extant systems currently in use – MasterFormat™ for work results, UniFormat for elements, and Electronic Product Information Cooperation (EPIC) for structuring products.
