TÜV SÜD UK has appointed Dave Peacock as technical director of its Building Advisory Service.
Peacock has worked in the UK construction and property sector for almost quarter of a century, with a focus on BIM & digital services for the last 13 years. He joins TÜV SÜD from Royal HaskoningDHV, an international engineering consultancy, where he was BIM & digital lead for Europe. Starting his career in 1997, Peacock subsequently led the 3D modelling and BIM processes for the 2012 London Olympic Broadcast Centre project.
Peacock is a member of the UK BIM Alliance’s ISO 19650 Guidance Review Committee, and is also chair of the East UK BIM Alliance and vice chair of its Midlands group. In 2017, he achieved BRE certification as an informed professional, enabling him to lead BIM Level 2 projects.
Paul McDevitt, MD of TÜV SÜD UK’s Building Advisory Service, said, “Over the last three decades Dave has built a very extensive knowledge of digital services and he is a committed champion of the benefits BIM brings to the UK construction sector. His high level of expertise will further strengthen our advanced data management and analytics capabilities, which help building owners, managers and occupiers in the UK to reduce risk by improving safety, quality and sustainability.”
Dave Peacock said, “The TÜV SÜD Building Advisory Service team have ambitious plans to grow the business and I am really excited to be a key part of that drive. BIM has revolutionised the construction industry and I look forward to working with our customers to help them realise its benefits over the whole life cycle of their building assets.”
