These resources include checklists and sample quality artifacts, which are auditable records of quality checks that have been performed, in use at the time of writing. These resources will quickly be replaced, but they are included to help agencies visualize what quality management tools and artifacts may look like and help expand current checklists.

These risks can be mitigated by capitalizing on opportunities to review designs in new ways, addressing 3D modeling skill gaps and software limitations, and meeting new requirements for paperless quality documentation. This guide addresses these needs by providing new types of reviews, new approaches to digital review documentation, opportunities for introducing new software tools and features, and sample checklists and quality artifacts.

The use of new, 3D model media introduces new types of potential defects, changes the risk profile of potential design defects, and creates barriers to accessing information that are not an issue with paper documentation. Chapter 3 addresses the need for management of digital records and paperless quality artifacts, while Chapter 5 discusses how to update a quality management framework to proactively identify and manage potential defects.

1.2.3 Information Management Standards, Methods, and Procedures Information management standards contain guidelines, procedures, and best practices for managing data and information within an organization. Standards referenced throughout this guide include • ISO 7817 -- Building Information Modeling: Level of Information Need, • ISO 9000 series -- Quality Management Systems, • ISO 15489 -- Standard for Records Management, and • ISO 19650 series -- Building Information Modeling.

1.3.3 Direct Use of Design Data for Construction One of the biggest changes from 3D design model data arises from its direct use in construction, which can save time during bidding and provide efficiencies throughout construction. Model-based information can be delivered in different formats, such as • Spreadsheets or other tabular formats; • 2D or 3D vector graphics in PDF files; • Open format exports, including LandXML files at the time of writing and Industry Foundation Classes (IFC)

While it is possible to deliver a surface model in a format that AMG equipment can process, a contractor must go through several steps, either by converting design intent information into data on the AMG system or by creating a construction model to import directly into the equipment. A contractor's steps to verify data include survey setup for layout equipment, checking the actual ground com pared to the design-surveyed existing ground conditions and design tie-ins to onsite conditions, and the specific needs of the AMG operators.

1.4.3 Auditable Quality Artifacts Quality artifacts need to be in a durable format that is accessible to the quality auditor using commonly available software and typical skill sets. This generally means that the quality artifacts exist in a separate file (and in a different format)

• Appendix E: Review Procedures. – Walks through sample steps for the core review processes: review initiation, modeling standards review, model integrity review, survey, discipline design, and clash detection and spatial coordination.
