“…Looking at the current global status of BIM, it can be argued that BIM adoption and implementation varies from developed to developing countries and this is due to the lack of clear practical mechanism, frameworks or strategies to adopt it. Some countries have set up agencies to manage nationwide implementation and introduce best practices and standards [1,3,[18][19][20]. In Middle East region, the use of BIM is still not mandatory.…”

Journal of Architectural Engineering Technology AbstractIn the last decade, construction industry has witnessed a huge transformation in term of the use of digital technologies, and particularly Building Information Modelling (BIM). BIM is a revolutionary digital technology and process that is reshaping the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry. Though, internationally, BIM has gained a great reputation for boosting productivity in AEC industry, but it holds undeveloped possibilities for providing and supporting AEC industry in Jordan. This study aims at assessing adoption of BIM within the construction industry in Jordan.To achieve this objective, the research commenced by carrying out an intensive literature reviews on the implementation of BIM world-wide, which was utilised to identify the benefits, and challenges of BIM in construction industry. An exploratory study was then conducted using an on-line survey to identify the current level of BIM experience, and to define the perceived value, benefits and challenges facing BIM implementation. Findings reveal that the adoption and implementation of BIM in Jordan is still in a very primitive phase and it faces number of critical barriers such as, but not restricted to, the absence of government incentives, the lack of BIM standards, lack of BIM awareness, lack of BIM training, cost and resistance to change. It concludes recommendations for how the industry shall adopt BIM and integrate it within construction industry's all processes. Highlighting the synergy between the two, this paper can help AEC practitioners in Jordan recognize potential areas in which BIM can be useful in AEC practise.

“…In previous research, the Survey found that BIM implementation in all countries increased significantly and is expected to continue to increase over the next few years. Many other countries, like Pakistan [10]. Meanwhile, research conducted by Yulian in [3] with the title "Evaluation of the Application of Building Information Modeling (BIM) in the Construction Industry in Indonesia" which explains the application of Building Information Modeling (BIM) in the Indonesian Construction Industry, states that the use of BIM in Indonesia has not maximum, even though the application with the BIM concept has emerged a long time ago in Indonesia.…”

 Abstract: In the current development of the construction world, many efforts have been made to improve the quality and quantity of work, both structurally and in construction management. At least the efforts made are efforts to improve and achieve better work results. Technology development is needed, including in the construction world where one form of technology developed in the construction world is BIM (Building Information Modeling). For practitioners who adopt BIM or plan to invest in BIM in their future projects, there is a need to understand BIM's top investment priorities, risks associated after they start using BIM, and ways to increase BIM returns because this problem will influence decision making BIM investment. To overcome this, it is necessary to examine the main priorities of investment in adopting BIM, ways to increase returns on BIM applications, and risks in implementing BIM in developing countries, especially for actors who provide construction services. This study uses the Relative Important Index (RII) statistics to provide advice on how to improve and use BIM for industry professionals MEA or interests interested in investing in BIM or planning to use BIM in their projects.

This study identifies Building Information Modeling (BIM) benefits in the presentations of previous project participants and specialties. Based on recent data, a framework for evaluating the project-level BIM benefits from the perspectives of different stakeholders involved in the project is proposed. In order to maximize the benefits for each user or stakeholder, the functions and methods for implementing BIM on construction projects are explained. The results show that the advantages of implementing BIM in construction projects can be effectively evaluated by the proposed framework. Results presented herein provide documentation to improve the understanding of BIM benefits to all construction industry stakeholders.
