Severfield, the largest structural steel specialist in the UK, has joined the BIM frontrunners through their recent BRE Global BIM Level 2 Business Systems Certification.
Operating across a wide range of sectors including commercial, industrial, healthcare and education, retail, energy and others, the structures created by award-winning Severfield have been used in iconic buildings and large infrastructure projects such as the 2012 Olympic Stadium, The Shard, Heathrow Airport, Birmingham New Street Station, Wimbledon Centre Court, the Emirates Stadium and the Paris Philharmonic Hall.
Gary Wintersgill, Managing Director Severfield UK said: “We have had BIM Level 2 recognition for a while, but the addition of a formal association provided by leading certification body BRE Global enables us to be PAS 1192-2:2013 and PAS 91 compliant. This puts us at the forefront of our industry and fully compliant with our customers’ requirements.”
Paul Oakley, BRE BIM Director said: “Congratulations to Severfield for their recent certification which marks their continuous improvement on their “safety first” commitments. The certification will enhance their reputation as innovative leaders able to deliver any project, to the highest possible standards in a demanding and ever developing industry.”
BRE Global’s BIM Level 2 Business Systems Certification scheme assesses a business in relation to its BIM capability and policy as outlined in the PAS 1192-2:2013 and PAS 91 standards. It also considers the ability of the business to meet the requirements of an employer to implement BIM on a project.
