But, there were potential challenges in the adoption of BIM
 AEC companies and professionals could not understand the actual process
 The inability of enterprises, owners, and stakeholders to change building mindset
 Inability to understand long-term benefits
 Skill-set inadequacy
 Inadequate investment to adopt the BIM process through its process and technology
 Collaboration issues between various departments or trades
Today’s BIM Scenario
 In today’s AEC scenario, project stakeholders require precise deliverables, efficient buildings, and modern building processes
 BIM is much more than 3D visualization, it is a holistic process to create and manage a building project from design to sustainability, facility management, and more
 It uses the philosophy of measure twice and builds once
 BIM makes the entire design-build process collaboration easier between various stakeholders viz. Architects, Engineers, Contractors, and Building Owners
 Every company or owner adopts BIM at various levels, viz. BIM level 1, BIM level ...
... 2, or BIM level 3
BIM shows promising results for owners & stakeholders
 On a global level, more than 70% of AEC professionals like Architects, Engineers, GC’s, and building owners use BIM for their projects
 As per statistics by McGraw-Hill Construction, the projected growth of the BIM market by 2022 would be $7.6 billion
 BIM makes it easy for stakeholders to run complex workflows efficiently thereby reducing project time, waste, construction waste, and expand possibilities
 This increases project Return-on-Investment (ROI) at every level of the project lifecycle.
