We’re delighted to announce that RPS, A Tetra Tech Company has achieved the latest UKAS accredited ISO 19650 International Standard Business Systems Certification.
The news follows BRE’s successful completion of the UKAS BIM Certification pilot programme, which has been running since 2019. This is the first time that accreditation for BIM certification schemes has been available, with UKAS being the first body to pilot BIM accreditation against the ISO17065:2012 conformity assessment standard and the ISO 19650-2:2018 BIM standard.
We solve complex problems by merging creativity with the pragmatic implementation of technologies. In recent years, we have made significant progress in digital design, establishing centres of excellence and best practice communities for BIM, Virtual/Augmented Reality and Data Analytics, enabling the Digital Twin approach.
We are delighted to have achieved the latest UKAS accredited ISO 19650 certification in recognition of our best practice in BIM. Replacing the BIM Level 2 Business Systems Certification, ISO 19650 is an international standard for managing information over the whole life cycle of a built asset, using BIM.
“RPS prides itself on being an organisation at the forefront of an increasingly complex world. The results from the latest audit have proven this to be the case. The organisation is constantly evolving in line with changes to BIM standards, certification and emergent technologies. The certification process helps ensure that BIM's value and quality are delivered on projects and this process is now further enhanced by the UKAS accreditation held by the BRE ISO 19650-2:2018 scheme.” - Craig Potter, BIM Auditor at BRE.
Our certification to this standard demonstrates our commitment to absolute delivery with the latest best practice international standards.
Our Galway office was initially awarded BIM Level 2 Business Systems Certification by BRE Global in November 2015, followed by Dublin, Cork and Newark offices in May 2018.
“Updating our digital technology skills is a continuous journey. We have already met our accreditation target which now allows us to provide the best service for our clients and solve complex problems efficiently” - Mark Costello, Director – Galway Office and Digital at RPS.
