Benchmark Alberta's architectural, engineering, and construction industry knowledge of building information modelling
Construction professionals agree that building information modelling (BIM) will revolutionize the architectural, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry and its impact will be felt by all project stakeholders including owners and facility managers. Statistics show that many owners and other stakeholders perceive BIM as a technology that can make project delivery more efficient because it allows project information to be fully integrated. In the future, owners are expected to demand the use of BIM to prevent over-budget and over-time project delivery. However, as we are preparing this contribution the level of implementation and use of BIM varies widely across the globe. This paper probes the state of BIM in Alberta from three points of view: (i) the current understanding and implementation, (ii) the motivations driving its use, and (iii) the challenges hindering its implementation. The findings of this paper are extracted from individual responses to a web-based survey that was proposed to professionals in the Albertan AEC/FM industries.
