This document discusses the benefits of building information modeling (BIM) in construction project management. It explains that BIM allows for improved collaboration, coordination, planning, and decision-making across the project lifecycle from design through construction and operations. Integrating BIM with project scheduling through 4D modeling provides visualizations that improve constructability analysis, site planning, progress tracking, and issues resolution. Studies found that BIM can deliver up to 30% savings in project time and over 50% cost benefits over the lifetime of a building. Proper implementation of BIM requires the right people and processes to ensure everyone shares information effectively for better project outcomes.

3. Agenda
• General introduction about BIM.
•Why is BIM important now?
•Enhanced & optimized performance
•BIM : RETURN ON INVESTMENT

4. Today’s Challenges of AEC Industry
- Tighter Budgets & Deadlines
- Complex Projects
- Internal & External Collaboration
- Information overload
- Project Risks

9. What is BIM?
“a digital representation of physical and functional characteristics of
a facility. As such it serves as a shared knowledge resource for
information about a facility forming a reliable basis for decisions
during its lifecycle from inception onward.”

Better Information For Management.

10. - Management

without any
conflicts of interest.

11. BIM ELEMENT AND ATTRIBUTES

14. Why BIM?
● Better, faster, more cost effective built assets
● …across whole life - Build, Operate & Maintain
● Earlier visual understanding - clients, operators, users
● Early Employer's Information Requirements
● Greater outcome & cost certainty, fewer changes
● Lower risk premium, higher utilisation
● Lower carbon, waste & H&S incidents
● Target 20% CAPEX, 33% WHOLE LIFE savings

17. 3D Sections
● Quantities
● Dimensions
● Loading
● Calculations
● Specification

18. BIM Collaboration

•discipline security
•manageable file size

19. ✓ All project partners – uses a single, shared 3D
model, cultivating collaborative working
relationships.
✓ This ensures everyone is focused on achieving best
value, from project inception to eventual
decommissioning.
Better outcomes through collaboration

“Traditional methodology” leaves project teams, information
& processes disconnected
How do I…
• View models without special software?
• Link RFIs with objects for resolution of clashes
and issues
How do I…
• Link information into my model for a
complete BIM handover?
• Get an audit trail of decisions made?
How do I…
• Distribute huge BIM files?
• Reduce cycle times on clash
resolution?
• Version control to avoid errors on
out-of-date models?
How do I…
• Access models on my mobile
device?

26. ▶ is a mix of science and art that is used
particularly in the process and infrastructure
sectors as a standalone discipline to control
what are often large and complex projects with
the aim of bringing the project to a successful
