“…These are main subjects regarding BIM usage and its benefits. However, these failures to reach better results with BIM can have many reasons related to the adoption process, according to the research of Doan et al (2019). Figure 7 provides evidence that BIM not only improve internal team collaboration (according to Figure 4), but also enhances collaboration throughout the building lifecycle and among all construction project's stakeholders and disciplines.…”

“…To improve such planning, companies should promptly draw on the knowledge of all stakeholders, and should explore new contracting models." The research of Doan et al (2019) aimed to identify the elements potentially impacting on BIM adoption. The results indicate that leadership, client and other stakeholders, strategic planning, people, resources, process, measurement, analysis and knowledge management are the most relevant ones.…”

By the early 2000s, the practical usage of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in the American construction sector was pu181shed by the US General Services Administration (GSA). Since then, BIM usage has been growing all over the world and several new possibilities regarding processes integration are emerging, as well as construction productivity enhancement. As a result, it is generally believed that the practices in project management could have been thoroughly transformed. Therefore, project management academics and professionals that have been working with traditional practices wonder how BIM changes their roles and the pre-existing methods for construction projects. Despite the 20 years of progression in BIM implementation, usage and the unquestionable results, it is still not clear how it is affecting project management and changing the roles in construction projects. Based on a survey with construction professionals and academicians, this paper discusses the effect of BIM over the processes, preexisting methods and responsibilities, thus contributing to the understanding of what has truly changed and what remains the same in the field of construction project management during the transition from CAD (Computer-aided design) to BIM. Additionally, it contributes to the understanding on how the management professionals deal with the digital transformation regarding construction management, contracts, communication, professional roles, and collaboration.

The use of Building Information Modeling (BIM) is becoming more common in the construction process, and the demand for the integrated use of BIM data is expected to continue increasing. BIM is a technology that can maximize various efficiencies by sharing facility information in an integrated manner; however, the information generated in the life cycle of the construction industry is broad, diverse, and complex. Accordingly, because BIM information is difficult to share and is often duplicated, it is not easy to obtain the effects of various BIMs. The solution to this is to create a systematic standard so that one item of information can be used in various ways, and everyone shares and uses it together. To this end, various standards (guides, classification systems, information standards, etc.) are being created; however, the interrelationships between standard elements are complex, so there is confusion and overlap between standards. This paper proposes an information standard framework for BIM to identify a systematic standard and method to effectively develop various guidelines for the standard.

Building Information Modelling (BIM) implementation is a dynamic process and there are a number of influential variables that may change throughout. There is little research on the dynamics of the change environment and the AEC organizations’ approaches to BIM adoption and implementation. A considerable number of BIM enablers have been identified and/or developed in the extant literature. However, stipulating BIM implementation enablers per se provides only a static view that is not adequate for describing effective management of BIM implementation in Architectural, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) organizations. This study is the second part of an ongoing research about BIM implementation enablers. In the first paper “Building Information Modelling (BIM) adoption and implementation enablers in AEC firms: a systematic literature review” (Abbasnejad et al., 2020) the organizational BIM enablers have been identified. The aim of this second paper is to (1) further review and validate the key BIM implementation enablers using both the existing literature and expert interviews, and (2) develop a structural model of the key enablers using the ISM technique to understand the mutual interaction of these enablers and identify the driving enablers and the dependent enablers. Twenty-eight enablers for BIM implementation were initially identified from the literature and subsequent discussion with experts from academia and industry has been conducted to select most key BIM implementation enablers. Eleven enablers were finally chosen based on the literature review and expert interviews and the Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) technique has been adopted to evaluate the contextual interrelationships among them. MICMAC (Matrix Impacts Cross-reference Multiplication Applied to a Classification) analysis was employed to classify the eleven enablers based on their dependence and driving power. The results indicate that there is no enabler in the autonomous cluster and this therefore signifies that all enablers are required for the implementation of BIM. BIM leadership and top management support have been identified as the enablers with the highest driving power in the initial stages of the BIM adoption and implementation process and for that reason, these enablers demand a greater priority given that there are other dependent enablers that will be impacted.
