IRJET - Digital Engineering & Project Management for AEC Industry using BIM

This document discusses how building information modeling (BIM) can transform project management in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry. It defines BIM and integrated project delivery systems, and describes how BIM supports key project management functions like clash detection, constructability reviews, scheduling, cost estimation, and asset management. BIM aligns with the knowledge areas in the Project Management Body of Knowledge and provides benefits like improved collaboration, productivity, quality, and cost savings. However, challenges to implementing BIM include overcoming personal beliefs, technical issues, skills and training, legal procedures, and costs. The role of the project management office is important to effectively adapt to and support BIM implementation.
