AI in BIM: Claude + MCP Turn a Client EIR into a BEP (ISO 19650)

Your client sent the information requirements as a PDF. In this live session we connect Claude to a Plannerly project with MCP and turn that EIR into a pre-appointment BEP, a scope, a RACI matrix and checkable information requirements - then just ask Javis what's missing.

Episode 3 of How to survive as a BIM Manager, the free live webinar series on ISO 19650 workflows, with Clive Jordan (co-founder), Akos Hamar (COO) and Bharathi Balu (Information Management Lead) from Plannerly.

What you'll see:
- Why information requirements go wrong (the EIR copied from the hospital job)
- Why "just use AI" gives you a different answer every time - and the structure that fixes it
- The Plannerly API: create a scoped API key and build a live project dashboard
- Plannerly MCP: Claude reads a client's EIR and drafts a pre-appointment BEP, answers traced back to each requirement
- Teams invited, RACI built, scope and information requirements set per milestone, with checking rules
- Javis: ask your project "what responsibility gaps can you identify?" and get a sourced answer
- Where it's heading: requirements built from a conversation with the owner
