Abstract

Bu çalışma, inşaat sektöründe BIM kapsamında Bilgi İhtiyaç Düzeyi (LOIN) tanımının gelişimini ele alarak BS EN 17412-1:2020’den ISO 7817-1:2024’e geçişi karşılaştırmalı analiz yöntemiyle incelemektedir. Araştırma, iki standart arasındaki kapsam, benzerlikler, farklılıklar, uygulama alanları, faydaları ve zorlukları değerlendirmekte; geçişin bilgi yönetimi süreçlerine, paydaş iş birliğine ve proje çıktısına etkilerini ortaya koymaktadır. Beş aşamalı analiz yöntemiyle yürütülen çalışmada, altı temel kriter doğrultusunda bulgular sunulmuştur. ISO 7817-1:2024’ün küresel geçerliliği, dijital uyumluluğu ve uluslararası standartlarla entegrasyonu öne çıkarken; geçiş sürecinde eğitim, uyum maliyetleri ve bölgesel düzenlemelere adaptasyon gibi zorluklar belirlenmiştir. Çalışma; literatür taraması ve araştırma kapsamının sunulduğu, yöntemsel yaklaşımın açıklandığı, bulguların tartışıldığı ve sonuçlarla birlikte önerilerin yer aldığı dört bölümden oluşmaktadır. Bu yapı hem akademik katkı hem de sektörel rehberlik sağlamayı amaçlamakta; ISO 7817-1:2024’e geçiş sürecinde stratejik bir yol haritası sunmaktadır.

Standardization of Level of Information Need (LOIN) in Building Information Modeling (BIM): Transition from BS EN 17412-1:2020 to ISO 7817-1:2024

Abstract

This study examines the transition from BS EN 17412-1:2020 to ISO 7817-1:2024 using a comparative analysis method, focusing on the development of the definition of Level of Information Need (LOIN) within the scope of BIM in the construction industry. The research evaluates the scope, similarities, differences, application areas, benefits, and challenges between the two standards; it reveals the effects of the transition on information management processes, stakeholder collaboration, and project outcomes. Conducted using a five-phase analysis method, the study presents findings based on six fundamental criteria. While ISO 7817-1:2024 stands out for its global applicability, digital compatibility, and integration with international standards, the transition process reveals challenges such as training needs, compliance costs, and adaptation to regional regulations. The paper is structured into four main sections: literature review and research scope, methodological approach, discussion of findings, and conclusions with recommendations. This structure aims to provide both academic contribution and sectoral guidance, offering a strategic roadmap for the transition process to ISO 7817-1:2024.
