Assessing the performance of the BIM implementation process: a case study

Abstract

The article proposes a system of indicators to measure the performance of BIM (Building Information Modelling) projects. Proposed indicators divided into two groups: quantitative (cost and time related numerical values) and qualitative (verbally expressed measures recalculated to scores according to proposed four-point rating scale). The metrics include the calculation of time and cost variations, the assessment of the organizational scale of BIM deployment, BIM competency granularity level, BIM capability level, BIM maturity level. In the case study, the proposed indicators applied for the evaluation of the results of the real construction project. The limitations and difficulties faced up during the project implementation discussed, and the benefits of the application of the BIM methodology revealed. The application of the proposed methodology is useful in assessing, at which level the BIM applied in construction projects and measuring the progress towards achieving project goals. The proposed methodology may also be useful for constant monitoring of the BIM implementation in construction projects.

Performance Measurement and Analysis of Building Information Modeling (BIM) Applications in the Railway Infrastructure Construction Phase

“…However, by searching WoS with topics "quantitative" and "railway", there is only one publication result [16] that proved a lack of cost-effective quantitative research on the performance evaluation of BIM application in the field of railway infrastructure construction. Therefore, there is strong research significance in qualitatively and quantitatively studying the performance of BIM application environments [21][22][23]. Unlike previous studies, Ref.…”

Investigation on the effectiveness of using building information modeling (BIM) tools in project management: a case study

“…Furthermore, X. Wang and Chong (2015) and Vilutiene et al (2021) evaluated the BIM at various stages of the project and concluded that BIM integration is important for operations. Bryde et al (2013) examined how BIM is used in projects that resulted in better scheduling, cost, and product quality, as well as increased teamwork and coordination.…”

Measuring the Benefits and Barriers of the Implementation of BIM in Sustainable Practice in the Construction Industry of Saudi Arabia

“…The construction industry has recently witnessed a promising development known as building information modeling (BIM), which aims to achieve the industry's long-standing objective of quality through efficient project design and management [6]. Despite its longstanding presence, BIM has garnered significant interest in recent years, as evidenced by the growing trend of its implementation in construction projects [7,8]. The adoption of BIM as a means of reducing construction costs and expediting the delivery of construction projects, as exemplified by the "UK Government Construction 2025" initiative, represents a noteworthy instance of policy measures aimed at achieving these objectives [9].…”
