The Building Research Establishment's (BRE) 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.
As the first contractor in Ireland to secure the certification, John Sisk & Son's Managing Director, Stephen Bowcott, said the firm has mandated all projects worth over €10 million will be BIM integrated.

"It has been the norm for our pharma sector for the last decade. We are encouraging our customers and consultants to understand the real benefits of BIM for the whole life costing of their assets," he said.
"It is understandable that the training investment for some consultant practices in Ireland is at this time difficult. We believe that BIM is absolutely essential in our pharma sector, in our technologies and also in most commercial projects too."
Guy Hammersley BRE Group Director for BIM said: "Congratulations to John Sisk. BIM certification will further enhance its reputation for continuous improvement in its operational processes with its zero accidents, zero defects, and zero delays philosophy."
Operating in the UK, Ireland and across Europe, John Sisk recently completed work on Crossrail's Eastern Running Tunnels in partnership with Dragados.
