2.7 Information Delivery Manual (IDM)

The IDM is a methodology to document the exchange of information using BIM tools to support the sustainable building design solutions with a process map that can be reused to support future project design.

Design Teams shall provide IDMs for executing energy analyses, verification of geospatial requirements, project water management, and daylight harvesting analysis in compliance with the Information Delivery Model (IDM) published by the Building Smart Alliance.
