NBIMS Ballot Deadline Extended

A series of building information modeling (BIM) meetings at the buildingSMART alliance National Conference, held during the Institute’s Annual Meeting, focused on the kick-off of the National BIM Standard-United States (NBIMS) Version 2. While the initial plan was to begin receiving ballots on January 3, 2011, with a deadline of February 28, people are finding they have more work to do to prepare for the deadline. Therefore, the Alliance is inserting a two-month “blue sky” ballot period so people can submit “draft” ballots for discussion and coordination prior to the extended submission date. The new deadline is May 2, 2011. See the updated schedule.
