That said, BIM has been preoccupied with 3D visualization to the extent that many/most feel that Revit, Archicad, et al are all that’s needed to implement BIM. Many/most organizations are dealing under an “information scarcity” model, when in reality we are all in an world of. Some will succeed, many will fail.
