DFI Announces New Project Information Management Systems Committee
Massimo Mucci to Chair Committee
DFI announced the formation of the Project Information Management Systems Committee. This new technical committee was formed in response to a trend in the industry towards digitalization of data and the increase in use of data management and geospatial tools including Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Building Information Management (BIM).
The committee’s mandate is to collect and track trends in owner specifications, methods and technologies that feature information management applications applied to deep foundation projects. The committee’s initial goals include the authorship of one or more white papers or guidance documents available to DFI members that assist in navigating these trends. The committee will liaise with the BIM/Digitalization Committee (DFI Europe) to coordinate activities.
