“…Two streams of research predominated in the “collaboration” cluster: developing collaboration platforms and improving collaborative behavior among stakeholders. Three of the studies (Alhava et al , 2015; Ma and Ma, 2017; Ma et al , 2018a) focused on developing the collaboration platform. In their study of knowledge exchange for collaborative performance assessment, Staykova and Underwood (2017) proposed a tool based on 20 characteristics of knowledge exchange for use in BIM-based IPD projects where collaboration is among the main goals.…”

“…In their study of knowledge exchange for collaborative performance assessment, Staykova and Underwood (2017) proposed a tool based on 20 characteristics of knowledge exchange for use in BIM-based IPD projects where collaboration is among the main goals. One study (Alhava et al , 2015) proposed the use of an “intensive big room” to extend BIM beyond design to construction to facilitate IPD. They described this setup as a combination of BIM, integrated concurrent engineering and big room approaches (Alhava et al , 2015).…”

Purpose Integrated project delivery (IPD) and building information modeling (BIM) have been discussed as prominent collaborative concepts in recent architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) literature, thus recommended for more advanced value creation. However, they have been studied predominantly as discrete even though they are typically highly interrelated. This study aims to enhance collaboration in AEC projects by tracing recent trends in IPD and BIM literature by making sense of trends and by exploring how their interplay has been discussed and conceptualized. Design/methodology/approach This systematic literature review draws on Scopus and Web of Science as the primary databases. In total, 120 academic papers and review articles were sourced. Yet, the final sample includes 71 sources from the past decade (2011–2020), focusing on both IPD and BIM. Findings This study identifies 11 interrelated and overlapping themes that are indicative of trends in the recent IPD and BIM literature. This research found that among the identified themes, the clusters of sustainability, transformation and increasing the competence level of staff in the AEC industry, in addition to the concept of quality, require more extensive research in the context of IPD and BIM. Additionally, this study identifies four different approaches to the interplay of IPD and BIM, indicating an absence of scholarly consistency. Originality/value Based on the systematic analysis of the recent literature, this study indicates that IPD and BIM have several joint fundamental cornerstones. It is evident that both concepts support the implementation of each other. The success of implementing either one is strongly related to the other. Additionally, we have not found earlier systematic literature reviews that examine the interplay between IPD and BIM in the recent AEC literature.

“…A key to this will be the integration of the DQI tool within a digital project environment such as BIM or making it interoperable with other project data and applications. This will facilitate interactivity and compliance checking between defined aspirations and project decisions and actions (Alhava et al, 2014, Kim et al, 2015. A framework for achieving this could include the following elements:…”

Maintaining focus on clients’ requirements using the DQI tool

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the contribution of the design quality indicator (DQI) tool in the management of client requirements in construction projects, and propose a requirements-oriented project process (ROPP) to ensure continued focus on client requirements throughout the lifecycle of a project. Design/methodology/approach Direct participant involvement and case studies of building projects that have used the DQI tool are used to analyse the extent to which DQI contributes to the management of client requirements. Findings Case study analysis suggests that the DQI enhances focus on client and project stakeholder requirements through the initial quality aspirations set out at the beginning of a project, but it is limited in its scope to address a more comprehensive requirements profile. Research limitations/implications The proposed ROPP model is conceptual and requires further development to test its effectiveness in enhancing focus on client requirements. However, given current developments in automated checking in BIM and other environments, this offers scope for further research in this area. Originality/value Maintaining focus on client requirements throughout the process is a key criterion for project success. However, given the many stakeholders involved, and the progressive translation into various project documents, there is a risk that focus on the original/evolving requirements of the client can be lost. Current approaches such as the DQI have limitations and a robust ROPP is, therefore, a key contribution to securing clients’ objectives over the project lifecycle.

“…Value generation in construction projects depends strongly on the identification, processing and communication of client requirements to support decision making in the design process [1]. However, there are well-known difficulties in managing client requirements in construction projects: (i) Client requirements are often poorly identified and updated [2,3]; (ii) clients' needs change over time, and new requirements often emerge throughout project stages [4][5][6][7]; (iii) little use is made of repositories of information on client requirements [7]; (iv) requirements are not widely available, and hence, not accessible to all product development team members [3,7,8]; and (v) there are difficulties in tracking requirements, due to the fact that much of the information involved is qualitative [7,9,10].…”

“…Connection: A clear connection between requirements and objects in product models, such as spaces of components, must be established [13,25,27,29,54,56,58,59,63]. Those connections could support value generation by making it easy for decision-makers to understand the required functionalities of building spaces or components [6]; 4.…”

Using Building Information Modelling to Manage Client Requirements in Social Housing Projects

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This paper proposes a set of guidelines for using Building Information Modelling (BIM) to manage client requirements in the context of social housing projects. A process model representing main activities involved in requirements management has been devised, as well as nine constructs that can be used for assessing the effectiveness of using BIM for client requirements management. The process of managing and modelling clients’ requirements is important to improve value generation, considering the limited resources usually available for social housing projects, as well as the need to deal with the diversity of user profiles. The use of BIM-based tools to support this process can potentially improve the performance of those projects in terms of environmental and social sustainability. Design Science Research was the methodological approach adopted in this investigation. The main outcome of this study, the set of guidelines, emerged from an empirical study carried out in a social housing project from Brazil. This study explores the managerial perspective of client requirements modelling, proposing practical contributions, such as understanding the challenges of managing requirements in social housing projects, and theoretical contributions, such as descriptions of the activities involved in client requirements management and their interactions, and constructs for assessing BIM-based solutions for that problem.
