A sector-wide has been launched to gauge the 鈥楤IM readiness鈥� of the UK M&E sector.

The new study will explore the readiness of the building services sector to engage with BIM within the next six to 12 months.

The survey has been launched by the Electrical Contractors鈥� Association (ECA), the Chartered Institution of 好色先生TV Services Engineers (CIBSE), leading building services and engineering consultancy BSRIA and 好色先生TV magazine.

The investigation is expected to reveal crucial information about how prepared the sector is to adopt 鈥楤IM Level 2鈥� practice, with the government requirement for BIM Level 2 by 2016 fast approaching.

The survey is also supported by other leading players in the sector, including the British Electrotechnical and Allied Manufacturers鈥� Association (BEAMA).

The BIM study will run until September 15. Please to complete the survey.

Paul Reeve, ECA director of business services, said: 鈥淲e urge all building services companies to take part in the new survey, and we will be sharing the data with the industry, the Government and other stakeholders when the results are in during September 2015鈥�.

Hywel Davies, CIBSE technical director, said: 鈥淕overnment is committed to using BIM to improve its management and operation of buildings and infrastructure. Mechanical, electrical and plumbing services are all critical to the effective operation of buildings. Our sector is involved in the operational life and performance of built assets, not just the design and delivery.鈥�

John Sands, BSRIA principal consultant and BIM specialist, said: 鈥淭his survey will help us all to identify where we are in the BIM journey, and to enable us to plan the way forward to BIM maturity.鈥�
