Virtual Middle East BIM Summit: Your ten-step guide to BIM adoption
Adopt the DAECO framework
UBA’s aim is to introduce the DAECO (digital architecture, engineering, construction and operation) framework, which will integrate project management principles and all its stages within BIM and VDC for better management, exchange and usage of information. We have started to create this with the Society of Engineers – UAE (SOE-UAE), and they are responsible for these guidelines and the implementation of the DAECO framework. We are collaborating with Dr Saeed Al Dhaheri, president of the Digital Engineering Chapter (DEC) at SOE-UAE to create BIM standards and templates, and accelerate and deploy BIM implementation. Established a few months ago, DEC’s primary mission is to build a smart, sustainable built environment, by accelerating BIM and leveraging smart cities and intelligent technology.
