“…However, a few studies are available that investigate BIM adoption specifically in the context of design firms. A review of literature by Son, Lee, and Kim (2015) reveals an empirical study that identifies the factors that facilitate adoption of BIM among architects. However, this study is limited to the identification of facilitators and does not focus on inhibitors to adoption.…”

“…First, BIM implementation resembles a complex network, because various actors are involved, beyond the design team, such as clients and asset owners (Love, Matthews, Simpson, Hill, & Olatunji, 2014;Son, Lee, & Kim, 2015) and suppliers. Second, the existing approaches to alliances tend to be more IT-driven and less inter-organisational even in long-term collaborative ventures, such as SC partnerships (Rezgui & Miles, 2010).…”

Building Information Modelling (BIM) technology and the concept of supply chain management (SCM) could be a potentially compatible and mutually interdependent practice. The existing research on BIM focuses on improving project-based and intra-organisational goals, ignoring the impact of BIM on existing structured long-term Supply Chain (SC) partnerships. The purpose of this study is to explore the interdependences of BIM and cross-project long-term inter-organisational teams. Five projects in the Netherlands, with BIM and SCM implementation, were analysed empirically using case study methods, including interviews, documents analysis and live observations. The BIM-enabled SC partnerships adopted various SCM practices and displayed distinct BIM collaboration patterns. This exploration revealed three main patterns of BIM-based collaboration, that is, ad-hoc, linear and distributed, in the SC partnerships. The three patterns included various quasi-contractual, physical and digital means for BIM collaboration. The study suggests implications about BIM researchers and practitioners for not only implementing BIM, but also further integrating the construction SC.ARTICLE HISTORY

“…For example, Son, et al [13] showed that two distinct constructs (usefulness and ease of use) are positively associated with an individual's behavioral intention to utilize a new technology in construction. Some other studies tend to understand the adoption process through an exploratory process which is mainly case based study.…”

“…By using BIM we can increase project quality, schedule timetables accurately, and reduce total costs of the project [12]. BIM is a technology which is used in construction industry to generate and manage a parametric model of a building to decrease document errors and rework, and reduce the time of the design process Son, et al [13]. Using BIM enable project team to create and use digital models, to design construction and to manage operation of the construction process and finally to achieve the project life management [14].…”

New digital technology has the potential to decrease the environmental footprint of construction activities, while they increase the productivity and safety involved in major construction projects. Digital technologies such as web-based building information modelling (BIM) and sensing technology are emerging technology that can be widely employed in construction projects in developing countries. However, the construction industry tends to be slow in adopting new digital technology to meet their objectives in developing countries. This paper aims to investigate construction technology readiness for utilization of digital technology in construction projects and to identify the factors that can potentially facilitate construction stockholders' application of digital technology.A questionnaire is designed, and an empirical investigation is conducted to collect data from construction companies including industrial and infrastructure construction companies. Regression analysis was utilized to analyze the data to measure the relations of latent factors through significance values using SPSS. The findings show the importance of a series of factors influencing construction stakeholders' intention to use a new digital technology. Based on the extensive review on the relevant literature, few empirical studies have been conducted to examine the proposed constructs including innovativeness and optimism for emerging digital technology. The results are also expected to provide a guidance to broaden understanding of adoption behavior within this context and thereby increasing the chances for successful adoption of sustainable technology and develop activity-level.
