This thematic area deals with the common infrastructure that the sector needs for digital and industrial development. It encompasses standardisation for the exchange and integration of information in built environment processes, including information structures for life cycle perspectives, but also data accessibility and data ownership issues.
Legal issues related to real property formation, detailed development plans and building permits are included, in addition to forms of procurement and contract for the optimum exploitation of digitalisation. The area is characteristically strategic and manages complex relationships in which numerous stakeholders benefit from the results.
