Technical Manuals
BICSI produces technical manuals based on industry regulations, codes, standards and best practices that form the foundation of knowledge required for the professional credentials and certifications offered by BICSI.
Manuals currently offered include:
- Telecommunications Distribution Methods Manual (TDMM)
- Information Technology Systems Installation Methods Manual (ITSIMM)
- Telecommunications Project Management Manual (TPMM)
- Outside Plant Design Reference Manual (OSPDRM)
Technical Information & Methods (TI&M) Committee
Manuals are maintained by the BICSI Technical Information & Methods (TI&M) Committee. Manuals are revised every 3-4 years, allowing time for emerging trends and technologies codified in standards to stabilize.

Interested in contributing?
The TI&M Committee utilizes volunteers to review and update content within manuals. As manual development is periodic, the TI&M Committee maintains a list of volunteers, subject matter experts, and other interested parties, so that when a manual is being created or revised, work can commence in a short period of time.
