Recently the construction industry has started to study and implement together Lean Construction (Lean) and Building Information Modeling (BIM) to better manage projects. Previous research findings suggest that several changes in the work practice and business processes are needed to fully take advantage of BIM and Lean. Even if the client's role is very important to drive the entire process, the literature lacks of comprehensive examples of client's implementation. The paper shows how a large client organization is integrating Lean and BIM in real projects and how it is possible to measure it thanks to a Maturity Matrix. The research is based on a case study involving both active participation and interviews. The main results indicate that a) internal change is needed in the client organization; b) clients need to drive the process in order to maximise benefits; c) BIM does not fit in the traditional procurement process; and d) existing contracts need to be modified to support BIM and Lean. Research findings are useful for large client organizations that would like to integrate BIM and Lean in their operational strategy as well as for researchers. Further studies could be done to compare the work of different client organizations.

IT master plan, which allows planning and managing the development of the computer systems, derives its importance in the central role of the computer systems in the functioning of organizations. This article focuses on the use of FAHP method for analysis and evaluation of tenders during the awarding of contracts of IT master plan's realization. For those purposes, a painstaking work was realized for making an inventory of criteria and sub-criteria involved in the evaluation of tenders and for specifying the degrees of preference for each pair of criteria and sub-criteria. To find a provider for the IT master plan's realization, organizations are increasingly using tendering as the mode of awarding contracts. This paper is an improvement of a previous published paper in which AHP method was used. The goals of this work are to make available to members of tenders committee a decision support tool for evaluating tenders of IT master plan's realization and endow the organizations with effective IT master plans in order to increase their information systems' performance.

Email: ahmadou.diabagate@gmail.com INTRODUCTIONOrganizations increasingly use IT master plan for leading the development of the computer system which is an essential element for their operations [1]. Thus, public and private procurement of IT master plan's realization are becoming more frequent.The IT master plan is a strategic plan intended for piloting the development of IT in an organization. It allows having a computer system that meets the strategic options of the Directorate General. Its starting point is the strategy of an organization to reach the definition of a target in terms of IT and information system. The realization of an IT master plan aims at many objectives such as the urbanization of the computer system, the modernization of IT infrastructures (hardware and software), the reduction of IT costs, the accompaniment of the launch of strategic projects, the creation of monitoring indicators, the multi-sites deployment of the computer system.Organizations, in order to ensure their tasks, need to purchase goods or services or to execute work. These purchases designated by the term "procurement" play a considerable economic role and have a significant economic weight [2] estimated at about 20% of global GDP [3]. The award of contracts is a sensitive area as the economic interests at stake are huge [3], [4]. There are several modes for awarding contracts including tendering [5] which can be defined as a process that allows to emit a request for works, services and goods to businesses and then choose the provider after analysis of proposals according to predetermined criteria without negotiation [6].

“…Building Information Modeling (BIM) represents, nowadays, the main point of integration between the digital processes and the construction field. There is no univocal definition of BIM [6]. A possible source is in [7], where BIM is defined as ''the use of a shared digital representation of a built object (including buildings, bridges, roads, process plants, etc.)…”

The definition of preliminary project cost estimates is one of the key aspects of investments in the real estate field. This kind of estimates plays a fundamental role in the decision-making process defining whether to proceed with the project. However, the definition of accurate estimates in preliminary phases is still an open issue and several researches have been developed to improve the performance of the process. Most of the researches are focused on the introduction of digital methods that are able to improve performance both in terms of precision and effort reduction. This paper is focused on the comparison between two traditional estimating methods used in the preliminary project phase and a digital method based on Building Information Modeling processes and instruments, to understand the impact of digital practices on the traditional estimating processes.
