BIMobject announces that the company has signed a contract with the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) to support the development of the department\u2019s BIM content library using BIMobject\u00ae Hercules<\/h2>\n

Using the BIMobject<\/a>\u00ae Hercules content management system, the MoJ will be able to create content for a library of digital building products through requirement object models. The BIM content library\u00a0will allow the MoJ to regulate the distribution of content to suppliers and partners in a secure environment, whilst also allowing them to monitor who accesses the content.<\/p>\n

BIMobject\u00ae Hercules is a cloud-based solution, which means that no proprietary software is required. The BIM content library is managed and accessed simply, using a regular web browser.<\/p>\n

It also allows object models and the data associated with those models to be obtained from a single source, which in turn allows specific data requirements \u2013 such as the government standard COBie \u2013 to be associated to the model. The BIMobject\u00ae Hercules will give the MoJ more flexibility as well as the ability to update data as requirements change without having to create new models. Having a \u2018single source of truth\u2019 also adds to the security of MoJ BIM content library data.<\/p>\n

Matt Watchorn, head of BIM at the MoJ, said: \u201cWe are delighted to continue to build upon our client BIM Level 2 capability by taking our MoJ BIM Object Library to the next generation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith this development, content management and user-friendly accessibility will be a new digital standard for us. We look forward to the further advances in the assembly and manufacturing space that this development will enable.\u201d<\/p>\n

David Jellings<\/a>, managing director at BIMobject UK, added: \u201cHaving supported the UK government\u2019s BIM initiative from its introduction in 2011 and MoJ on various projects since 2013, I am delighted to be working with MoJ in the development of their BIM Level 2 programme and am committed to ensuring that BIMobject do whatever we can to help the programme in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n
