Subsequently, the government of Malaysia launched its first BIM-adopted project in 2010 called the National Cancer Institute (NCI) in Putrajaya, Malaysia (Haron et al, 2015;Ismail et al, 2017;Latiffi et al, 2015;Musa, Marshall-Ponting, Abdul Nifa, & Shahron, 2018).…”

Apropos to numerous environmental issues highlighted globally and locally, Malaysia has now moving forward towards new agenda of greening the cities. A positive movement trend of new green building in the country can be seen as number of projects going into green rating application are increasing yearly. Nevertheless, sustainability impact is considered as significantly small since newly developed green building represent small percentage as compared to the existing non-green building. Therefore, the idea of greening the existing building through refurbishment emerged in order to achieve wider sustainability objectives. Apart from that, supported with recent evolvement of technology and digitalization in construction industry, in lieu with governments’ strategies to adopt Industry 4.0, Building Information Modelling (BIM) has also been acknowledged and used broadly as a solution to integrate and facilitate management of information throughout building lifecycles. Considering these two areas; sustainability and BIM are continuously gaining momentum these days, this paper attempts to explore BIM’s potentials as an enabler to help greening the existing non-green building. Literature review is conducted focus on reviewing BIM and sustainability present status in Malaysian construction industry, also their relationship including examining potential areas where BIM may contribute to enhance the buildings’ sustainability performances. Based on the reviews, there is a potential of bridging the two areas considering both has becoming a national construction industry agenda since the government released CITP2016-2020. To further concur the ideas, literature reviews has also proven that the ability of BIM to facilitate various functions has enable it to support several sustainability analyses such as energy, carbon emission, lighting, water, materials and waste, building and site, and costing analysis.

“…One of the targets of CIDB is to use BIM Level 2 by Q4 2020 and for all public building projects above RM100 million (100%) (including hospitals and schools for JKR development projects) (CIDB, 2019). The adoption of BIM in the future will pose many challenges with regard to the use of technology, processes, and people (Musa et al, 2018). The main challenges have also been identified with regard to people factor, particularly in terms of the shortage of professional and trained BIM workers, which has resulted in the high cost of implementing BIM (Jamal et al, 2019).…”

Building Information Modelling (BIM) has become an essential tool for improving construction methods in delivering projects. Yet, much BIM-related expertise is needed to achieve the performance quality of the projects. The Malaysian Construction Industry Transformation Plan (CITP) 2016-2020 under the Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB) highlights that the government is beginning to follow the BIM for level 2 by 2020. The move was to improve the adoption and implementation of BIM among the practitioners in the construction industry. The government initiatives have raised the importance of BIM skills and knowledge among practitioners to facilitate successful implementation of BIM-related projects. This paper reports the findings of a thematic review analysis of skills that need to be harnessed from architecture graduates in preparing them to undertake BIM-related projects. Publications from 2010-2020 were analysed by means of a thematic review. Findings from the code-to-document review using ATLAS.ti 8 identified the BIM skills needed from an employee. This paper contributes to analysing the BIM skills indicated from the published papers hence the avenue for future studies on BIM graduates' preparation prior to entering the labour market in Malaysia.

“…In particular, Building Information Modelling (BIM) has been known to be one of the most advanced digital technologies' tools capable of stabilizing the management of information and improve the collaboration within multi organisations in overall construction project cycles (Ya'acob et al, 2018). Additionally, these benefits vary either for short or long term investment, including the ability to deliver precise project information and providing greater visualisation of project information via multi-dimensions modelling capabilities (Hosseini et al, 2016), enhancing the quality of project communication across multi-actors (Zahrizan et al, 2014;Musa et al, 2018), providing the platform of shared knowledge and decision making as well as management of data and resources within different organisations at different phases in the construction projects (Memon et al,2014).…”

The emergence of widespread advanced digital technologies being utilised into the construction industry practices adds a new dimension to the better integration and collaboration of construction projects. Nowadays, Building Information Modelling (BIM) is recognized as a modern tool to enhance greater visualisation of project information and provides opportunities for an effective communication platform within a multi-organisations context. Despite the wave of enthusiasm for BIM studies having shown exceptional benefits, the context of social collaboration across multi-organisations is still limited. Thus, this paper aims to present the review of key indicators towards social collaboration achievement within multi-organisations in the BIM construction context. Based on a comprehensive review, five key indicators are identified that contribute to the social collaboration achievement in BIM construction context. Including organisational perspectives, foundational setting, behavioural perspective, educational perspective and enforcement platform. The findings also revealed the extend of the spectrum of collaboration literature in the context of construction domain particularly on characterisation and its importance towards social collaboration within a multi-organisation in digital environment.
