BSI Group Japan K.K. (Location: Minatomirai, Nishi-ku, Yokohama; President: Masaki Urushihara; hereinafter "BSI Japan") has certified BIM BSI Kitemark (Kite Mark) based on ISO 19650-1 (*1) and ISO 19650-2 (*1) for Ikeshita BIM Equipment Co. BIM BSI Kitemark" certification based on ISO 19650-1 (*1) and ISO 19650-2 (*1).

At the certification award ceremony held on April 17, 2024

Digitization in the construction industry has been progressing rapidly in recent years. Processes from the start of a project to the disposal of construction materials are beginning to incorporate efficient management methods using big data, IoT, cloud computing, AI, BIM (Building Information Modeling), and other technologies.

BIM is an information management mechanism that uses digital modeling to manage information across the entire lifecycle of a construction asset, from planning, design, and construction to maintenance and operation. The ISO 19650 standard is the first standard for BIM.

ISO 19650 is an international standard for information management throughout the life cycle of assets built using BIM.

It contains all of the same principles and high-level requirements as BIM Level 2 (*2) and is closely aligned with the PAS 1192 standard, the predecessor to this ISO. Proof of compliance with this requirement will indicate a mature BIM implementation.

BSI Japan provides BSI Kitemark certification and verification services to prove the BIM maturity level of our clients.

In order to promote and disseminate ISO 19650 in the future, it is becoming increasingly important to understand the respective roles of the ordering organization, prime contracting organization, and contracting organization in the information management cycle and the roles they must play.
