What do we do?
Information about our environment is key to unlocking the many challenges that we encounter.
At buildingSMART UK & Ireland (bSUKI), we help asset owners and the entire supply chain work more efficiently and collaboratively through the entire project and asset lifecycle, through better interoperability.
We are the UK & Ireland Chapter of buildingSMART International. Other global chapters can be found here.
We are responsible for gathering industry requirements and representing the UK & Ireland’s needs at international level. This is essential when standards are being developed to ensure we are all catered for.
