ISO 19650 is not the hard part - delivery is
Most teams do not struggle with ISO 19650 because they dislike standards. They struggle because delivery pressure turns good intentions into a messy reality: scattered documents, scattered models, unclear responsibilities, and verification that happens too late.
Pierre Venter described it perfectly as "The minefield of data, documents and models in the rush to get stuff out the door, and then redoing it again". That is the operational gap ISO 19650 is supposed to close - and it is also where the biggest cost shows up: rework, delay, and reduced trust across the supply chain.
Here is the practical shift we focus on in Plannerly training: move from documentation to workflow. That means planning requirements early (EIR/AIR, BEP, MIDP/TIDP), assigning ownership using a clear responsibility matrix, and connecting requirements to ongoing verification (including open standards like IDS).
If you want a quick primer: ISO 19650 PDF and ISO 19650 in five minutes.
Below are standout student reviews from recent Plannerly certifications.
What these reviews are really saying
- Information managers want centralization - one place where requirements, documents, roles, and checks live.
- They want early planning - so issues are avoided, not discovered at the worst possible moment.
- They want clear explanations - practical guidance that can be applied on real projects.
- They want the work to feel like a workflow, not a set of disconnected templates and spreadsheets.
That combination is how you get more predictable ISO 19650 delivery - and why teams stop redoing work they thought was already done.

From a long-time perspective, Pierre points to platform maturity and integrated delivery: "The comprehensive platform, has been a magic development from the first LOD Planner. I have enjoyed the capability passed to the users, and project teams, by the integrated steps. really engaging in all things BIM. Good one."
Abdallah gets straight to the point: "The Course shows Real issues that can be avoided by early planning"
Daniel highlights the value of clarity and progression: "Really good Videos. Helped me a lot in understanding the capabilities of Plannerly. Looking forward to the advanced courses"
Esra calls out the quality of instruction: "Education was good. The narrators explained the subject very well. I enjoyed it. Thank you for providing such an opportunity."
If you are choosing a next step
- If you need a practical reset: start with BIM Boot Camp.
- If you are implementing ISO 19650: use this compliance guide alongside the training.
- If BEPs keep drifting from reality: fix the operational gap with BEP delivery workflows.
- If roles are unclear: anchor delivery with a responsibility matrix (RACI).
