Endo-BIM
[edit] Endo-BIM
Endo-BIM describes a design or data authoring process derived and executed within the central collaborative BIMprocess and one of its federated model volumes. The method or processes are integrated with the current approved BIM volumes and as such responds and reacts to the developing conditions in a timely and effective way.
Endo-BIM occurs in circumstance where a project has implemented, defined and managed BIM protocols for all consultants stakeholders and the supply chains for defined stages of the project. For a project contributor to develop their models, drawings or data within those defined constraints is considered Endo-BIM .
Endo-BIM can never be a process that develops drawings or data exported from an exchaged BIM volume taken from the central collaborative BIM process, and is then developed within non-object based CAD software, or derived from sources other than the live 3D modelled building fabric and/or other modelled assets within it.
In conclusion, Endo-BIM is a process that produces project data or information exchanged within a BIM protocol defined IM environment, which itself is derived directly from one of the BIM Volumes listed in the volume strategy for that project.
