New NEC Practice note: how to use the CIC BIM protocol with NEC4


On 10 April 2018,the Construction Industry Council (CIC) published the Second Edition Building Information Modelling (BIM) Protocol.

The first protocol was originally published in 2013, and it has now been reviewed to reflect current practices and new standards published.

Peter Higgins, Chair of the NEC4 Contract Board, presented at CIC’s launch and introduced the new guidance for using the BIM Protocol with NEC4 contracts.

The Practice Note is entitled “How to use the CIC BIM Protocol with NEC4” and is available here.
