Seumter BIM enabled e Submission & Building Act Legality Verification System for Korean Architectural Administration www.eais.go.kr
Seumter? 4 Seumter is the national standard information system which supports electric one stop processing of overall architectural administrative works which is one of the most complex civil services in Korea. Innovative administrative work process Innovative service to the public Innovative data resource management Paper document works Electric document works Tasks by departments Tasks by work flow Individual counter, Face to face Unified counter, Online service Limited accessibility Electric extended accessibility Individual resource management Unified resource management Exclusive system Strong Link to related information systems
Main Functions 5 01 One stop service For architectural administrative works No visit, No paper for permission procedure and real time confirmation through web Permission procedure Visit to offices Storage for blueprints 60days 9.3days 5times no visit Library DB $1 billion of economic effect yearly 02 Work procedure The way of work Streamlined administrative work flow by cooperation through internet Sequential process of related organizations Simultaneous process Face to face Online consultation Online cooperation System with related organizations 03 DB for national building information 100% reliable statistics through DB of national 6.7million building data Building register statistics A month for 2000 apartment units A minute (15million annual) 2~3months Real time statistics (supports policy decision) Shared object Provision method Efficient information sharing between public and private organizations About 10 organizations About 200 organizations Online Online(Real time) 04 The start point of Administrative information sharing 05 Precheck of legality Precheck of the building legality or permission which is open to anyone Check of legality Only possible by experts(architect) Anyone $45 million of saving yearly
Legality verification system 6 arbitrary interpretation of code Groundworks for Structured code system arbitrary interpretation of code Legality verification Based on diverse information Record management of the result from legality reviews Frequent inquiry about permission Arbitrary code interpretation Difficulty of reviewing diverse codes Demand to develop a system for code review Trying to blend Property/Plan/Spatial information Phone call, Visit Depends on the knowhow of the person in charge Excessive related regulations Lack of evidence for code review results Convenience, usefulness Excessive tasks Lack of organized guidelines Lack of unified code inquiry system Difficulty in delivering know how Demand for unified property/plan/spatial information review Many possible confusions Different results of code review Excessive time demand Insufficient use of reference in similar cases Efficiency promotion through unified user interface For building permission, continuous reviews on related regulations are needed but there are diverse difficulties like lack of well organized code review system, arbitrary interpretation of code, excessive time demand, handling process based on the experience of person in charge, etc. Through building an organized code review system, Legality verification system aims to improve the reliability of building permission works and intend to make the code review process and post management more efficient.
