Purpose

The purpose of this module is to define and mandate the processes for managing documentation of all kinds, from initial concept to close out. This module’s objectives are to:

a) demonstrate that appropriate attention is given to the management and control of documentation;

b) provide a standardised governance framework within the organisation; and

c) provide a single point of reference on the processes relating to the management of documentation.

The approach is based on best practice within industries that undertake major infrastructure projects and practice recommended by the major professional bodies. Implementation of this module will reduce the reputational and financial risk related to the delivery of complex projects.

This module supports the progressive adoption of the BS1192 document referencing system on all projects and is a fundamental requirement of applying Building Information Modelling (BIM) on projects.
