Information management using BIM

BIM Page Description

Building Information Management (BIM) is a way of managing site and building data using shared, information-rich 3D models.

What is BIM?

This method helps improve the quality and exchange of information at every stage: design, construction, and post-construction. Fundamentally, BIM is about getting the correct data to the relevant people, at the right time, in the appropriate format.

In response to the successful use of UK and International BIM standards, an increasing number of companies in both public and private sectors are adopting the BIM process.

Why adopt BIM standards?

Reduce errors and omissions
Improve collaboration
Reduce waste
Enable whole lifecycle management
Provide better information for improved decision-making
Reduce the cycle time of specific workflows
