Actionable BIM Requirements

Stop writing 300-page BIM manuals.

Configure EIR data contracts.

pragmaticBIM replaces bloated BIM Execution Plans with dynamic, version-controlled requirements your whole organization can act on.

  • Protect your investment at every handover
  • Stop rebuilding requirements for every project

The Status Quo: Documentation Over Data

Traditional BIM Execution Plans (BAP) have become unreadable text manuals rather than checkable data requirements. They focus on manual processes instead of clean deliverables.

Template Overkill & Inflated Costs

Clients copy-paste generic, one-size-fits-all templates because specific downstream data use cases aren't defined. This drives up modeling effort and project costs.

The Non-Standardized Trap

Planners and architects receive entirely different, text-heavy specifications for every project, making it impossible to standardize or automate internal workflows.

Disconnected Data Handoffs

Requirements live in static PDFs disconnected from CAD/BIM software (Revit, ArchiCAD, Allplan). Modelers guess what parameters to input, leading to severe data loss.

How it Works

1

Define your data standards once

Build your organization's requirements based on real data needs - the use cases. Track changes and evolution with Git-level precision.

2

Configure the right contract for each project

Every project is different and needs different use cases. Configure the project's deliverables by selecting exactly the use cases that apply.

3

Present in every format your team needs

One source, every output. Publish as an interactive web presenter, structured Excel, machine-readable IDS, or a PDF contract addendum.

Platform Features

Merge requirements per use case

Combine templates across clients, phases, or workflows into one consistent data contract.

Extensible action plugins
