What's in the EIR Template

Every section is pre-structured with clause references, example text, and guidance notes.

  • Project Information Requirements - Scope, objectives, and BIM use cases by project phase.
  • Commercial Management - How BIM deliverables tie to payment milestones and contracts.
  • Competence Assessment Criteria - What to ask for in pre-qualification.
  • Information Delivery Milestones - Data drop schedule aligned to design stages and authority submissions.
  • Information Standard - Naming conventions, LOD/LOI, coordinate systems, CDE setup.
  • Information Production Methods - Software requirements, model federation, clash detection protocols.

Who It's For

Anyone defining BIM requirements on a project - client, client rep, or authority.

Developers

Define what you need

Stop getting unusable models. This template ensures consultants deliver data aligned with your asset management.

Project Managers

Set clear expectations

Attach the EIR to tenders so every bidder responds to the same requirements - evaluation becomes objective.

BIM Managers

Build a repeatable standard

Customise once for your organisation, reuse across projects - consistency without rewriting.

Why You Need This

Writing an EIR from scratch leaves gaps. The result is usually incomplete and inconsistent.

Vague BIM requirements

"Deliver a BIM model" isn't an information requirement. This forces specificity - LOD, data drops, federation rules.

Consultants deliver inconsistently

Without a structured EIR, every team interprets differently. Data doesn't aggregate.

No link to operations

Most EIRs focus on design but miss asset handover. This includes sections for asset data and FM integration.

Regional requirements missed

Gulf authority submissions have specific BIM requirements. This includes a regional addendum.
