BIM, Productivity, Architecture, Engineering, and Construction.

Building Information Management

Revit, Archicad et al… are NOT BIM, but rather 3D visualization components of BIM. Visual estimating/automatic quantity take off ( QTO), and collaborative contract/project/document management, are all in one application.
