“…Recognizing the benefits that BIM adoption can bring to the construction industry, as Matthews and Ta have summarized (Matthews and Ta, 2020), in 2014, the Institute of Construction Economics belonging to the Ministry of Construction of Vietnam (MOC) conducted a research project on "Building Information Modeling (BIM) roadmap for improving efficiency of design, construction and facility management activities in Vietnam". As a result of this research, several legal documents and policies, guidelines have been issued to create a legal environment for BIM adoption (Table 3).…”

Building Information Modelling (BIM), an emerging trend in the construction industry worldwide, has been officially introduced to Vietnam recently in some piloted projects. However, in Vietnam, the BIM market is still immature due to that the players in the construction industry have perceived many barriers in adopting this new solution. In a country with a civil law system like Vietnam, the legal environment is considered as the most important enabler for the construction industry to adopt innovative technologies, including BIM. This paper, using a hybrid research approach of surveys and expert judgment, discusses the most popular barriers in BIM adoption in the construction industry in Vietnam, which include five internal and five external barriers. The country’s BIM roadmap, policies and relevant legal documents that are currently in effective are then collected and analyzed in line with the discovered barriers in order to explore their effectiveness in creating an enabling environment for BIM adoption and implementation in the local conditions. After that, legal considerations on the clarity and feasibility roadmap for BIM adoption, the reasonableness of the strategy/plan to grow the industry’s BIM capacity, the system of relevant laws and regulations to govern the BIM-enabled construction projects, the need for a new set of standards and codes for BIM-related processes, and an incentive system for the pioneers in BIM adoption in public sector are discussed. Recommendations on the legal document system, governmental policies, incentives and supports from the Government to encourage the construction industry to apply BIM are then presented. Further research can be developed beyond this research to validate the research results in a broader coverage.

“…Amid technological strides, the construction sector has witnessed BIM nD models and collaborative software's evolution for planning. Integrating these tools remains a challenge, inspiring this study to explore enhancing project managers' planning for complexity management by developing soft skills such as proactive behaviour [67]. Examples include BIM-augmented reality integration, multicamera productivity monitoring, and BIM-GIS supply chain fusion, collectively known as 'digital construction', see hypothesis [H3].…”

“…Industry standards are often more effective and adaptive than formal regulations, but government policies can also informally impact attitudes [66]. In addition to policies that may have a legal effect [95,96], consensus-based standards, such as the National BIM Standard (NBIMS-US) and the work of the EU BIM Tak Group [67], may establish these frameworks. These standards can either evolve formally or gradually emerge over time, yet they must remain flexible enough to accommodate technological shifts; a domain where project managers might exhibit a sluggish response while businesses are compelled to promptly address the matter out of necessity [97], with consequential effects on decision makers.…”

Background: This study investigates the potential of digital construction to enhance the planning competence of project managers in dealing with the complexities of mega construction projects. Traditional project strategies often struggle to adapt in dynamic situations, particularly evident in mega construction endeavours. Drawing inspiration from successful digital strategies in manufacturing, this research proposes that adopting digital techniques could bolster project managers’ ability to navigate complexity during construction, leading to improved infrastructure delivery within budget and on schedule. Methods: Employing a quantitative approach, this study utilized an online questionnaire to gather insights from project managers. The proposed hypothesis was assessed using a one-sample t-test. Additionally, Pearson’s correlation coefficient was employed to gauge the strength of the relationship between various constructs. This approach aimed to determine the extent to which digital construction can support effective complexity management during mega construction projects. Results: The results indicate that digital construction equips project managers with enhanced capabilities to efficiently coordinate and allocate resources in real-time within complex construction environments, thereby optimizing overall project performance. Despite these advantages, the findings also reveal that managers continue to encounter challenges overseeing numerous participants during infrastructure construction. This suggests that while digital construction contributes to improved planning against complexity, addressing the management of multiple stakeholders remains an ongoing challenge. Conclusions: This study presents a novel contribution to the construction industry by demonstrating the potential of synergizing various digital tools throughout construction processes to empower project managers in effectively addressing the complexities inherent in mega construction planning. Furthermore, it underscores how digital construction confers a dynamic advantage for project managers in navigating complexities and enhancing overall project performance.

“…In addition to implementing strategies in compliance with government policies, the BIM TASK GROUP, established under the promotion of the UK government, has its major goal of promoting the various duties of the building production and construction supply chain. However, after the government agencies having formulated various collaborative work specifications, starting from April 2016, it could be foreseen that building information models with highly collaborative functions would even become one of the basic elements of future architectures [2].…”

In this research we developed an BIM-based system to monitor and visualize the real-time building users information. Concentrating on building in-use stages, advantages in tracking facial recognition should be revealed through the availability of real-time information. In this way could explore the possibility of how BIM and IoT could improve data-oriented facility management. The integration system called SyncBIM. The five system elements of the construction platform are also proposed to allow more efficient management and data transmission of the building O&M system. This study integrates the three pieces of technology respectively known as BIM platform, Internet of Things, and computer vision to explore the architecture and technology required by the building O&M system, and establishes a "Decision-Making BIM-Based Cloud Platform" to allow the opportunities of information integration and collaborative operations for the application of BIM and the introduction of computer vision technology.
