International Digital Twin Standard
The speaker discusses the importance of a coherent exchange of information in the international digital twin standard.
Importance of Information Exchange
- Emphasizes the need for coherence in exchanging information.
- Technology should provide necessary information throughout various project phases.
- Managing diverse sets of information over an asset's lifecycle is crucial.
- Proper information management enhances design and construction processes, aligning with ISO 19650 standards.
- ISO 19650 aims to address issues like loss of information and redundancy in projects.
Digital Transformation and Data Management
The discussion delves into challenges related to managing data effectively during different project phases.
Challenges in Data Management
- Lack of essential information affects asset management from inception.
- Addressing data loss between project phases is critical for successful outcomes.
- Importance of utilizing a common data environment beyond just a technological solution.
- Need for digital solutions supporting ISO 19650-defined information management processes.
Workflow and Information Sharing
Focuses on workflow processes and sharing information effectively within project teams.
Workflow Processes
- Workflow stages involve controls, reviews, and approvals within a common data environment.
- Essential to have both software solutions and defined workflows as per ISO 19650 criteria.
- Distinguishing between work-in-progress data not meant for sharing and shared states for collaborative development.
Detailed Explanation of Document Sharing and Management
In this section, the speaker delves into the intricacies of document sharing, emphasizing the importance of maintaining authorship rights and clear communication protocols within shared documents.
Authorship Rights and Document Editing
- Shared documents do not grant permission for editing without consulting the original author.
- Only the author has the authority to make changes to a shared document.
Communication Protocols in Shared Documents
- Different levels exist within shared documents, allowing for various stages such as collaboration meetings to detect architectural interferences.
- Documents may transition from shared to approved by the main judiciary or client for review and approval.
Transitioning Document States: From Shared to Published
This segment focuses on transitioning document states from shared to published, highlighting the significance of client approval and author authorization.
Client Approval Process
- After thorough examination and approval by the client, authors can transition a document from shared to published status.
- Published status indicates that information is authorized for use, particularly during construction phases.
Archiving Information for Long-Term Maintenance
The discussion shifts towards archiving information for long-term maintenance purposes, emphasizing accountability and warranty considerations.
Archiving Process
- Archived information serves as a historical record of project data flow through different states like published.
- Ten-year warranties necessitate meticulous archiving by all involved parties including architects, engineers, and contractors.
Understanding ISO 19650 and Information Flow
In this section, the speaker discusses the importance of understanding ISO 19650 and information flow in the context of design and construction processes.
ISO 191504 Standard
- The ISO 191504 standard aims to enhance understanding of other ISO 19650 standards related to certification for design, construction, and operational phases.
- Emphasizes the significance of information flow in work processes.
Transitioning from Shared Work to Decision Making
This part focuses on transitioning from shared work to decision-making processes within the framework of ISO standards.
Centralization Process
- The norm emphasizes centralizing processes when transitioning from shared work.
- Decisions require specific actions and validations before progressing further.
Validation Processes in Information Sharing
The discussion centers around validation procedures during information sharing activities as per established agreements.
Validation Requirements
- Organizations need to validate shared information based on predetermined agreements.
- A designated coordinator ensures proper validation before moving data to a shared state.
Workflow Progression and Approval
Exploring workflow progression stages leading to final approval within the shared environment.
Workflow States
- Various states exist within the workflow until final approval by stakeholders.
- If discrepancies arise, according to ISO 19654, corrective actions are necessary for changes before re-entering the workflow process.
Key Decisions and Data Environment Reflection
Highlighting critical decisions, states, validations unique to each company/project reflecting data environment requirements.
Decision-Making Framework
- Companies must define validation criteria for two fundamental decisions within their projects.
- Understanding workflows associated with data environments is crucial for compliance with standards like ISO 19650.
Metadata Attributes in Information Containers
Discussing metadata attributes within information containers essential for effective data management systems like Wildin Smart.
Metadata Importance
- Metadata such as descriptions, status, revisions are vital attributes that facilitate efficient data management.
