Exchange Information Requirements
An Exchange Information Requirements document defines what project information is needed, why it is needed, who must provide and review it, when it must be exchanged, and how it will be accepted. It helps owners, architects, engineers, BIM teams, and contractors coordinate deliverables before design and construction information becomes incomplete, inconsistent, or late.

What a clear Exchange Information Requirements document does for a construction project
Define required drawings, models, schedules, properties, reports, and supporting documents before delivery.
Align architectural, structural, MEP, civil, landscape, interior, sustainability, and construction information.
Set milestones, file formats, model detail, data requirements, review responsibilities, and acceptance criteria.
Let the appointed design or construction team explain how it will meet the EIR through its BIM Execution Plan.
How information requirements flow from the owner to the whole project team
Owner / Appointing Party
Defines project decisions and information needs
Exchange Information Requirements (EIR)
States what information must be delivered
Lead Designer / Consultant / Contractor
Responds through the BIM Execution Plan (BEP)
Architects, Engineers, BIM Teams, and Contractors
Produce, review, coordinate, and exchange the required information
Information requirements stay in use across the whole project lifecycle
Project brief and consultant appointment
Concept and developed design
Permit and authority submissions
Detailed design and tender
Construction and coordination
As-built information and handover
Challenge
Construction teams often begin producing drawings and models before the required information, responsibilities, exchange dates, and acceptance criteria are clearly defined.
Approach
This portfolio demo translates ISO 19650 information-management concepts into a guided workflow for Thai architects, engineers, BIM teams, and contractors.
Outcome
Users can structure construction information requirements, review missing items, preview a professional document, and download an EIR draft for further project-specific review.
