BIM is a technology that integrates and manages information generated throughout the entire construction project process, including △planning △design △construction △maintenance. DL Construction utilizes BIM technology to identify design and construction issues in advance, enabling risk management and hedging at the early stages. Additionally, it employs a data-driven approach to expedite decision-making and enhance productivity and safety.

ISO 19650 sets requirements based on the BIM information management, operation, and collaboration capabilities of project participants such as △clients △main contractors △subcontractors. Certification is granted through verification and audits of △internal documents (guidelines, processes, etc.) △employee interviews △project performance records based on these standards.

BSI, a founding member of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), established ISO 19650 in 2018 as a standard related to BIM information management systems. In South Korea, besides DL Construction, some major construction companies such as △Samsung C&T △Hyundai Engineering & Construction △GS Engineering & Construction △POSCO E&C △DL E&C have also obtained ISO 19650 certification.

DL Construction obtained the ISO 19650 certification as the ‘main contractor (LADP)’. Going forward, DL Construction plans to expand the application of BIM to multiple sites to maximize the efficiency of BIM project operations.
