The Appointment stage formalizes the information management obligations. During this phase, the high-level tender strategy is converted into a detailed, contractually binding set of delivery plans (TIDP/MIDP) and responsibility matrixes.
| TASK | APPOINTING PARTY | THIRD PARTY | LEAD APPOINTED PARTY | APPOINTED PARTY |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Confirm the delivery team's BIM execution plan | A | C | R | |
| Establish the delivery team’s detailed responsibility matrix | I | R/A | C | |
| Establish the lead appointed party’s exchange information requirements | I | R/A | I | |
| Establish the task information delivery plan(s) (TIDP) | C | R/A | ||
| Establish the master information delivery plan (MIDP) | I | R/A | C | |
| Complete lead appointed party’s appointment documents | R/A | C | ||
| Complete appointed party’s appointment documents | I | R/A | C |
Implementation Note: The MIDP is the primary document used by the Lead Appointed Party to manage the flow of information across the entire delivery team. It is compiled by aggregating the individual TIDPs from each task team.
