Lexicon Architecture: Technical Taxonomy & Governance

"Standardizing architectural communication through bilingual technical governance"


Data Governance Bilingual Lexicon Onboarding Ready GitHub stars

lexicon_arch

A centralized, bilingual (English-Spanish) technical taxonomy designed to serve as a Single Source of Truth (SSOT) for architectural and engineering firms.

This repository acts as a governance tool to ensure consistent terminology usage across international teams, streamline the onboarding process for new hires, and maintain high standards in BIM documentation, technical specifications, and project management.

Contribution Guidelines

Taxonomy updates are managed through a structured review process to ensure consistency:

  1. Reporting: Changes can be proposed by opening an Issue detailing the specific modification.
  2. Review: All proposals are evaluated against current technical and regulatory standards.
  3. Approval: Upon validation, updates are incorporated into the master CSV datasets.

Governance Policy

Strict data integrity standards are enforced:

  • SSOT: Files within /data serve as the master source. Manual modifications are restricted.
  • Bilingual Consistency: All terminology must adhere to the English/Spanish structure defined in the style guide.
  • Validation: Changes are audited to ensure compliance with the normative references listed in /documents.

Project Structure

The repository is organized to facilitate rapid onboarding and ensure data integrity across project phases:
