COBie Roles & Responsibilities
Typically, COBie data requirements are established by design professionals, documented within contract agreements, and subsequently passed to contractors and owners. Clearly defining the data to be provided at the outset is essential to reduce the costs associated with capturing missing information later in the project lifecycle.
The Core Challenge: One of the most significant hurdles in COBie implementation remains the lack of concrete information regarding specific responsibilities and roles across the different building stages.
