Building Information Management

JUNE 5, 2014

A multi-dimensional tool, Building Information Modelling (BIM) involves generating a visual model of the building which also manages data about it, at the design stage, throughout the construction phase and during its working life. What is BIM? Introduction. However, BIM goes beyond simply switching to new software.

For the definition of construction project management, it’s basically PMI’s definition in the construction context. Has the selection of architectural, engineering, and other required consultants been managed? Are all appropriate contracts executed between clients and consultants? Are all contract documents signed?

This means having participation from all parties—including the GC, architect, consultants, AND subcontractors. Not all the consultants work in 3D modeling, and most subcontractors are not fully BIM capable. Implementing this in multifamily was difficult at the beginning because it wasn't an industry standard–it still isn’t.
