For years I’ve been consistently preaching that BIM can be started at any point of a construction project lifecycle and it can be successful. In all mainstream BIM strategies, FM models sit at the end of the chain of Ds – numbered from the 6 th D onwards, following the 3 spatial Ds, cost and time.

If there are similar rules for establishing viable crops of BIM around the global AEC industry, they’re better be longer than 30 years. Even a decade or so ago, I could see that BIM was nothing like an emerging success story. May I call them BIM-doom-deniers?

If you are, or have been involved with BIM in any sort of form, move past the cheesy headline of this post and think: are you truly confident that this ‘BIM’ thing is working? After all, there almost never are two projects available with exactly the same set of base conditions, done in parallel, one with and one without BIM.

Answer: A VA-BIM is a Male/Female, 35+ old, QS professional that has had (some) ‘exposure to BIM systems for quantification’. This could be good news for the BIM campaigners active in the region. It is a large project, blessed with an elaborately spec’d, mandated BIM. Or a BIM expert. But not both.
