The “CIM Verification” service won in the nomination “Best Innovative Development – IT Solution” at the All-Russian Engineering and Architectural Award 100+ Awards 2026. The solution helps automatically check digital information models of capital construction objects and detect errors before moving on to the next stages of work. This was reported by the Minister of the Moscow Government, head of the Department of Urban Planning Policy. Vladislav Ovchinsky.
“The development of digital services makes the construction industry more efficient and transparent. Recognition in the all-Russian competition confirms that the solutions created in Moscow meet modern requirements and are needed by the professional community. The “CIM Checks” service allows specialists to identify errors more quickly even before further work with the model begins, thus reducing the risk of problems arising at subsequent stages of design and construction. Such tools accelerate the implementation of information modeling technologies and make digital processes more accessible to all participants in the construction industry,” noted Vladislav Ovchinsky.
The “CIM Checks” service was created by specialists from the Information Modeling Technologies Department of the Moscow Urban Planning Policy and Construction Complex to automate the process of verifying digital information models. The solution is in demand among architects, designers, developers, and state experts who work with information modeling technologies (IMT). The tool has no analogues among domestic software and allows for faster, more accurate, and more convenient model verification.
The functions of the service are divided into two areas. The first is intended for experts and includes advanced features for working with the graphical and textual parts of the project documentation. The second area is designed for a wider audience: the system automatically checks the model according to rules set by the user. This approach allows the service to be used by both experienced specialists and organizations that are just beginning to actively use BIM.
The tool performs several types of checks that previously took up a significant portion of specialists’ working time. It analyzes the model for coordinate correctness, detects duplicates and suspicious elements, checks IFC schemas, identifies collisions between structures, and also assesses the completeness and accuracy of object attributes. Thanks to automation, a check that used to take over two weeks now takes no more than one day. This allows faster progression to the next stages of work and reduces the likelihood of costly errors in the project.
The service is integrated into the portal ecosystem “StroimProsto” and interacts with other tools that help prepare documentation and materials for electronic submission. As a result, users get a unified digital space. There, they can verify the model, prepare the necessary documents, and generate machine-readable reports. This makes the process of working with CIM more consistent, reduces the number of manual operations, and improves the quality of construction project preparation.
To find out how the capital has changed in recent years, what initiatives aimed at making city residents’ lives even more comfortable are currently being implemented, and what awaits Moscow and its residents in the near future, you can look at a large-scale special project on the portal mos.ru, dedicated to the development of key sectors of Moscow. These include transport, industry, healthcare, education, sports, and construction.
On the page “Architecture and Construction” Information is presented about the large-scale renovation of the capital over the past 16 years. Here you can learn about the construction of roads and rail infrastructure stations, as well as the creation of transport hubs. Special attention is given to renovation program, and you can also learn about the restoration of iconic landmarks of the capital, in particular the House of Culture «GES-2», the North River Terminal, and VDNKh.
