On November 6th the Founders affixed their signatures to the constitutional documents of the Foundation for the establishment of buildingSMART Polska.
The objectives of the Foundation include the development of the basic principles of the functioning of the organization for entities operating in the construction industry which integrates activities related to BIM technology at both the national and international level. buildingSMART is an independent international non-profit organzation setting trends for the digitalization development in the construction industry by means of defining open international standards for information sharing.
“One of the key principles in our everyday work is innovation understood as continuous development of our technical competence and enhancement of quality of our services through new and better ways. That is why we decided to become one of the founders of the organization, which aims to develop new technologies in the construction business. BIM is the future of construction. I am very happy, that we will build this future together with partners from the construction industry” – said Henryk Liszka, CEO of HOCHTIEF Polska.
“BIM is a tool of effective gathering and sharing of information that are important and needed at every stage of investment during the building process. openBIM is a concept of open BIM data exchange through IFC and BCF formats that are promoted and developed by buildingSMART. The BIM workflow implemented since last eighteen months at HOCHTIEF Polska is largely based on the openBIM concept. This is an additional reason, why we look forward to co-creating buildingSMART Polska – the national branch of the organization that provides conditions for better cooperation in the construction business” – said Leszek Wlochynski, the Leader of BIM Team at HOCHTIEF Polska.
