“…A number of authors discussed BIM implementation as a technology and a combination between software knowledge and skills (Miettinen & Paavola, 2014) while others see that investing in IT infrastructure with education and training is a key factor (Lindblad & Vass, 2015). On the other hand, some researchers see change management and elaborating new business models as critical factors for BIM adoption (Lizhu, 2017;Miettinen & Paavola, 2014).…”

The construction industry is one of the most growing sectors worldwide, it plays a great role in boosting the economy. The construction sector in Algeria has recently witnessed an upward growth, due to the Algerian government’s vision to develop economic activity and boost the residential construction market. On the other hand, the Algerian construction market is suffering from the lack of efficiency; projects delay and less quality of projects delivery. It becomes very necessary to find a way to improve these inefficiencies by adopting new approaches and technologies. Building Information Modelling (BIM) is becoming a widespread and common approach in the design, construction and maintenance of building facilities as BIM reduces waste, improves construction quality and enhance collaboration among the construction stakeholders. Hence, it becomes necessary to start gradually introducing BIM to the Algerian construction industry in order to improve its productivity. This paper addresses BIM implementation in the Algerian AEC industry and proposes a preliminary framework towards its implementation. Through a questionnaire survey, we explored the BIM capabilities, BIM awareness and BIM maturity of the Algerian AEC players. Based on the questionnaire findings and literature review, this paper proposes an effective BIM implementation based on both levels of macro-adoption and micro-adoption. The framework developed is based on three main aspects comprise of technology, process and policy. This study is considered as the first implementation framework of Building information modelling in the Algerian AEC industry. The framework proposed will be used as a reference for the Algerian researchers and professionals.

“…In 2015, Lindblad and Vass [35] investigated the changes, in three areas of product (model), organization (resources) and process (work practices), required for BIM implementation initiating in a large public infrastructure organization in Sweden. Furthermore, Son et al (2015) [36] studied the drivers of BIM adoption in design organizations of AEC industry aiming to examine the factors enabling the adoption process by the architects.…”

Building Information Modeling is the process and the technology transition from a traditional single sequential form to a modern multiple parallel form of data integration. BIM is the process of data sharing and distribution with the ability to employ the data via numerous applications for managing several multidimensional tasks and activities of AEC/OM (Architecture, Engineering, Construction/ Operation and Maintenance) throughout the building lifecycle. Indeed, employing BIM technology not only seems vital for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) who are active in the construction sector of the building industry but also it is unavoidable for the firms who are seeking to increase their competitiveness and even their existence in the future era of the industry. The era of automation, robotics and 3D printing is coming faster due to the extraordinary developments and innovations in the digitalization and automation sectors, absence of desire productivity and efficiency in the building industry where BIM can efficiently provide the required information and accurate data to be used for model simulation and machine control in robotic construction.However, most of the active SME contractors are not aware of building information modeling, nor are they familiar with the BIM implementation framework and its key factors. Therefore, the main aim of this article is to provide realistic key factors for an initial BIM implementation framework that can help the SMEs, who are working in the construction sector of the building industry such as contractors, to understand BIM as modeling and employ it with less costs and more efficiency.

Building Information Modeling (BIM) as a new method presents a number of opportunities and challenges for the architectural, engineering and construction (AEC) industry. Obviously, there are many issues in the way of implementing BIM. Some of these issues have been largely eliminated over time and by the advancement of related technologies; however, various issues are emerging when dealing with the details of BIM implementation. Contract and legal barriers, cultural problems, management system, and economic and security issues are the most important challenges against implementing this technology. In order to bridge the gap between researchers and practitioners, this paper aims to summarize available information related to the implementation of BIM in the construction industry (about 47 papers) and its related barriers. This research focuses on the most repetitive challenges and barriers that have been more fundamental than the rest and other related issues have been ignored. Distribution of these barriers and challenges is different from region to region. Finally, challenges, which need to be addressed before we can fully benefit from BIM, are highlighted
