ISO 19650 Framework
The ISO 19650 framework is generally aimed for information management. The individual standards do not cover the whole area of quality management but instead point out to other standards suggesting
Complete information
adjective In Architecture Engineering and Construction (AEC), complete information is information which includes all the necessary and typical parts or elements, lacking nothing. For the information to be deemed complete,
Infrastructure
