The Legal Aspect of BIM: Contract Documents, Intellectual Property and Other Concerns — Real or Imagined
Presented by Patrick O'Connor & Joshua Pellant, Faegre Baker Daniels, LLP
The use of computer-generated modeling by design and construction teams continues to grow at a rapid clip. This technology, most commonly referred to as Building Information Modeling (BIM) or Virtual Design and Construction (VDC), creates new opportunities for advanced collaboration and project coordination. There are challenges, however, including managing expectations with respect to the use of model elements, the lack of widely used standard contract language, and a host of legal issues. This
program will focus on the opportunities and ways to manage contract and legal risk, real or imagined, that will help keep all parties out of court!
When assessing the risks of employing BIM and developing appropriate contract language for its use, a number of issues unique to modeling should be addressed, including:
- What are the purposes for which the model will be used?
- What is the schedule for deliverables from the model?
- How and to what extent will data from one model be transferred or incorporated into other models?
- How is the modeling process managed?
- What is the level of reliance that can be placed on modeled information?
- Will the model be used after construction is completed?
- Understand how delivery methods, including Integrated Project Delivery, impact the use of BIM, and how to decide which method to use on your project
- Learn about the various standard contract documents and BIM implementation forms that have evolved over the past five years and if they are right for your projects
- Learn about the latest BIMForum Level of Development Specification and how it may affect your projects
This webinar will address how answering the above questions early can pay off when using BIM models, and much more!
In addition, a 10-to-15 minute period has been reserved at the end of each of the four webinars for an interactive question-and-answer session so you can discuss specific issues or gain additional knowledge about topics discussed.
