ISO 19650 - Organisation and Digitisation of Information about Buildings and Civil Engineering Works (BIM) for Risk Managers

What does ISO 19650 - Organisation and Digitisation of Information about Buildings and Civil Engineering Works (BIM) require of a Risk Manager?

ISO 19650 is the international standard series for Building Information Modelling (BIM) and managing information over the whole lifecycle of a built asset. Under ISO 19650 - Organisation and Digitisation of Information about Buildings and Civil Engineering Works (BIM), which defines 198 controls, a Risk Manager's work is deciding which controls you own outright, which you share and which belong to another team, then holding the evidence for the first group.

Which ISO 19650 - Organisation and Digitisation of Information about Buildings and Civil Engineering Works (BIM) controls land on the Risk Manager

Risk Managers identify, assess, and prioritise organisational risks. They build risk registers, conduct risk assessments, define risk appetite, and ensure that compliance frameworks address the most material threats to the organisation.

ISO 19650 - Organisation and Digitisation of Information about Buildings and Civil Engineering Works (BIM) defines 198 controls across 6 domains that directly affect the Risk Manager role. Understanding which controls fall within your ownership, which are shared, and which are owned by other teams is the foundation of effective compliance management.
