Overview

Digitalisation of building permits was detected as the critical knot to be solved, in order to pave the way towards massive digitalisation in the construction industry, and to enable the potential of automation and optimisation in the management of building and city data.

The topic has being developing for a couple of years and now some mature solutions start to be available. Moreover, some important cross-border (e.g. European) projects as well as other local initiatives are currently running and can present their results.

Therefore, the EUnet4DBP, together with several relevant organisations, is organising the “Second International Conference on Digital Building Permit” to dive into the current status of research, developments and implementations, and to provide the opportunity for several digital building permit actors to meet and discuss.

Multidisciplinarity and inter-sectoral collaboration are key to solve the multifaceted and complex challenge of building permit digitalisation. Therefore, the conference will be structured to host several different kinds of contributions and activities, from research to implementations, with a relevant part reserved to users and stakeholders, in order to investigate the challenges of the solutions’ uptake.

Objectives

  • Share progress all over Europe and the World
  • Engage policy developers and regulators
  • Show benefits and the value of building permit digitalisation through concrete examples
  • Share solutions and components from several developers
  • Encourage municipalities to bring their points of view and expertise
  • Tackling the remaining outstanding problems and challenges
  • Legal aspects discussion
  • Share developments and experiences about data and technology for digital building permits

The conference is a Satellite event of the Festival of the New European Bauhaus

He was the Head of Department of Computer Science at the University of Auckland for nine years. Prof Amor undertakes research in the field of Construction Informatics. Achieving interoperability is his core research interest and to achieve this he investigates integrated environments which covers information modelling (e.g., BIM), automated code compliance checking, process modelling, user interaction, implementation frameworks, information mapping, and communication strategies. Since 2003 he has coordinated the working group CIB W78 (IT for Construction) for the International Council for Research and Innovation in Building and Construction (CIB). He is also Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Information Technology in Construction. He has two start-up companies, one to commercialise automated code compliance checking, and the other for VR-based training for natural disaster response.

He was formerly Head of the “Innovation Numérique pour la Construction” division at the Centre Scientifique et Technique du Bâtiment (CSTB) in the “Technologies de l’Information et Diffusion du Savoir” department (Sophia-Antipolis - FRANCE), and European Affairs manager in CSTB.

His main fields of interest are Information and Communication Technologies (including programming languages and compilation, semantic modelling, rule-based languages and knowledge-based systems, distributed architectures, software components, and technologies for smart constructions) and their broad application to the Built environment and the Construction industry, in particular BIM and Digital Twin technologies. He has been the Project Coordinator of various European collaborative FP5, FP6, FP7 and H2020 projects.

He is in support since a long time of ECTP initiatives (the E2B cPPP, the “Energy & Efficient Buildings”, “Active Ageing & Design”, “Infrastructures & Mobility” and “Digital Built Environment” Committees) in roadmapping and impact assessment, and is now responsible of the Built4People Partnership under the Horizon Europe Framework Programme too. He has been acting as expert for the review of various European R&D projects on behalf of the European Commission and has been participating in the European Commission Advisory group for ICT Infrastructure for energy-efficient buildings and neighbourhoods for carbon-neutral cities. He has been acting as leader of the “Open Data” Action Group in the European Innovation Partnership Smart Cities and Communities (EIP SCC), and has contributed as expert to the EIP SCC Operational Implementation Plan, in particular in the “Sustainable District and Built Environment” Action Cluster.

Ophélie Vincendon

Title of the presentation:

Development and process of the BIM building permit in the State of Geneva.



Mme Ophélie Vincendon is an engineer and have a master degree in BIM methodology. After 4 years working in BIM fields in France, she joined the State of Geneva being in charge of the BIM program of the State. This is a transversal program which consist in develop and deploy BIM inside the cantonal administration, following the 3 main missions of Geneva's state in the construction field : the state as a Building Permit authority, the state as an asset manager, the state as a territory manager. This approach is as humain and technological as methodological and this is the continuation of the digitalisation of Geneva's State.

He also lectures regularly at various institutions and is a member of specialist groups dealing with the digitalisation of the construction and real estate industry.

Michael Flickenschild

Title of the presentation:

Towards a more resilient, green and digital construction ecosystem



Michael Flickenschild is a Senior consultant at Ecorys, an economic and public policy research consultancy based in Rotterdam. Michael specialises in the areas of digital and industrial policy specifically for the construction sector. He currently coordinates the High Level Construction Forum on behalf of the European Commission (DG GROW), which is a multi-level a stakeholder platform that aims to chart out the transition pathway towards a more resilient, green and digital construction ecosystem. He also coordinated a technical study for the development of an EU framework for digital building logbooks (DG GROW), which developed technical guidelines for the implementation of digital building logbooks in Member States. He participated as well in a project developing supporting actions for the digitalisation of construction SMEs (EISMEA), which developed a handbook and digital maturity scan for SMEs, a website with good practices and implemented trainings for construction SMEs. Previously, Michael worked at the European Parliament and he studied political science with a focus on European governance.
