To efficiently organize the BIM implementation process on a project, a BIM Execution Plan (BEP) must be created before starting the design phase.

With the BEP, the following items are possible:

• Ability to summarize the overall vision of the project with implementation details for the project team to follow throughout the project;
• Ability to assist the employer and project members in documenting the agreed BIM deliverables and processes for the project and defining roles and responsibilities for each of these deliverables;
• Reducing the overall risk for all parties involved in the project by increasing the level of planning and reducing the number of uncertainties in the implementation process;
• Ability to articulate the scope of BIM implementation, process flow for BIM tasks, and information exchange between parties, as well as describe the necessary project and company infrastructure to support implementation.
