Timber Frame Self-Build Housing Sector in the UK amounts to only 7–10% market share than other housing construction sectors in the country. It is common for people to build their own homes in other countries, with Austria's self-build share being 80, 50 and 60% in the US and Canada, respectively. Bespoke houses in chosen locations appeal to clients with an opportunity to save up to 30% on market value and equip the house with high energy efficiency and the latest home technologies. The UK government has recently introduced policies to encourage self-building. Nevertheless, while the problem awaits resolution on a macro-economic level, the kit home manufacturing companies—the core providers in the self-build sector, can significantly contribute to the popularisation of the self-build by innovating their workflow. For clients who make buying decisions to self-build and have little or no knowledge of the construction industry, the major challenges in communication with professionals are spatial awareness, visualising technical drawings and understanding construction process stages. Exploratory theoretical research was conducted in the latest BIM, Computer Science and Business and management scientific literature to establish KPIs for measuring successful interaction and collaboration in TFSBS. This chapter investigates the current state of TFSBS in the UK and the integration potentials with BIM.
