All this will underpin\u00a0the\u00a0National Digital Twin \u2013\u00a0an ecosystem of\u00a0digital twins, connected via securely shared data. According to CDBB, the NDT\u00a0has the potential to\u00a0multiply\u00a0the savings and efficiencies\u00a0by facilitating\u00a0interconnections between\u00a0organisations\u00a0and\u00a0across\u00a0sectors.<\/p>\n<p>The National Infrastructure Commission\u2019s 2017\u00a0report \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nic.org.uk\/publications\/data-public-good\/\">Data for the public good<\/a>\u2019 highlighted the need for a strong national\u00a0programme to create standards and a national focus for the best possible use of data in the built environment.\u00a0The government\u2019s response was to ask CDBB to lead the development of the Information Management Framework and create the DFTG\u00a0chaired by Mark Enzer, chief technical officer of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mottmac.com\/\">Mott MacDonald<\/a>, to lead the national approach to the next generation of digital applications.<\/p>\n<h3>The Roadmap is split into five connected streams:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>The \u2018Approach\u2019 stream considers and defines the overall strategy for delivering the benefits of effective information management across the built environment.<\/li>\n<li>To establish the structures and processes for managing the development, adoption and ongoing oversight of the Framework,\u00a0there is\u00a0a \u2018Governance\u2019 stream.<\/li>\n<li>The \u2018Commons\u2019 stream develops the necessary support for effective information management via guidance, tools and standards.<\/li>\n<li>An \u2018Enablers\u2019 stream\u00a0seeks\u00a0to identify and address the key potential blockers.<\/li>\n<li>Finally, a considerable \u2018Change\u2019 stream is needed to facilitate the adoption of the Framework across the whole ecosystem of the built environment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>At the heart of CDBB&#8217;s programme is the drive to enable\u00a0the\u00a0National Digital Twin,\u00a0where\u00a0the\u00a0digital\u00a0models\u00a0sit alongside actual schools, hospitals, road\u00a0and\u00a0rail networks to help planning and to better inform decisions.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0next stage\u00a0for CDBB\u00a0is\u00a0to launch\u00a0the\u00a0Digital Twin Hub (DT Hub), a\u00a0collaborative, learning\u00a0community\u00a0for those who own or develop\u00a0Digital\u00a0Twins.\u00a0CDBB and the DFTG have announced that\u00a0Samuel Chorlton of\u00a0the Data and Analytics Facility for National Infrastructure (DAFNI) will\u00a0chair\u00a0the\u00a0Steering\u00a0Group\u00a0that\u00a0will establish the DT\u00a0Hub.<\/p>\n<p>Robin Webb, deputy director, Infrastructure and Procurement, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/organisations\/department-for-business-energy-and-industrial-strategy\">Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy<\/a>, said:\u00a0\u201cThe Digital Framework Task Group has done an impressive job in a short time in laying out the path to a National Digital Twin for\u00a0infrastructure, and to realising the benefits for society of a smarter built environment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe publication of the Roadmap is an important and exciting further milestone on the journey, and I congratulate Mark Enzer and the Group, and CDBB on it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Publishing the Roadmap, chair of the DFTG and Roadmap\u00a0Working\u00a0Group, Mark Enzer added: \u201cThe\u00a0Gemini Principles provided the conscience of this Information Management Framework\u00a0and\u00a0today\u2019s publication takes us one step further \u2013 providing a map of the first years of the journey that will lead to delivery of the Framework for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/hr-skills-news\/ukri-future-consultancy\/54064\/\">built\u00a0environment<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would like to take this opportunity to thank all of those involved, especially the members of the Roadmap\u00a0Working\u00a0Group \u2013 their time and expertise has been absolutely invaluable.\u201d<\/p>\n<div
