“…Cost reduction is another notable outcome of applying lean construction, BIM, and Dynamo in construction projects. The integration of these methodologies enables streamlined processes, reduced waste, and improved project efficiency, ultimately leading to cost savings and increased profitability [1,6,13]. This finding is in line with previous research that has demonstrated the cost-saving potential of lean construction and BIM implementation.…”

In the architectural, engineering, and construction industry, poor visualization of construction processes and lack of information exchange between different work teams can lead to poor performance. To address these challenges, lean construction methodologies aim to reduce and eliminate waste in construction processes, while BIM technology aims to enhance collaboration between project team members. In general, these technologies can be used together to improve project management and cost reduction. This can be achieved through improving workflow and coordination, enhancing interaction among project members, and using available tools to analyze and improve work. Many aspects of the integration between LC and BIM have been studied, and researchers have come up with some findings and recommendations. Most studies previously demonstrated theoretically that cost reductions using BIM techniques are significant compared to the traditional approach of project management. This is what this study proved practically by applying BIM in the design of a building which is quite successful in construction as it identifies the main causes of construction waste such as reducing waiting time and reducing non-value-added work by using Dynamo to develop these designs. So, the research problem comes, which is how to keep up with development in the field of construction by applying different BIM programs, which results in reducing the time and cost used in design. BIM is a technology that aims to enhance project management and cut costs. A digital representation of the project that contains all the data required for planning, managing, and carrying out the project is created using BIM.

“…Despite numerous benefits documented elsewhere, the construction industry in developing countries still lags in the integrated applications of LC, BIM, and FM [54][55][56][57]. This has been attributed to low awareness of the cost and infrastructures required for integrated applications of LC, BIM, and FM [33].…”

“…In the published literature, the notions of BIM-enabled FM have been discussed extensively [48,58,71,72]. On the contrary, the notions of LC-informed FM have received relatively little attention [55][56][57]. Therefore, more research should be performed to unlock the hindrances that impede the widespread adoption of integrated models of LC, BIM, and FM.…”

Over the past decades, the construction industry has benefited from implementing Lean Construction (LC) principles, extensive usage of Building Information Modeling (BIM) tools, and application of advanced Facilities Management (FM) theories as standalone packages. Recently, integrated applications of LC, BIM, and FM have attracted a lot of attention. While progress has been made, few researchers have attempted to develop a method for optimizing integrated applications of LC, BIM, and FM in developing countries. In addition, relatively little is known about the hindrances and challenges in integrating LC, BIM, and FM at various levels of inquiry. The current study contributes to these gaps by examining the challenges that hinder developing countries from adopting integrated applications of LC, BIM, and FM. Qatar, a rapidly developing economy, was used as a case illustration. In the present study, drivers for enabling optimized integration of LC, BIM, and FM were identified. A closed-ended survey was conducted to investigate and understand contextual and organizational factors that hinder the integration of LC, BIM, and FM at three levels of inquiry. Findings displayed that lack of communication skills, language barriers, and inappropriate training provided to low-level skilled workers were the most prominent hindrances. To this end, an integrated communication and collaborative environment for bridging the communication gap was outlined. Furthermore, the wide disparity in the levels of awareness, readiness, and implementation of LC, BIM, and FM across construction companies was identified as a major challenge in deploying and disseminating succinct knowledge on how to optimize the integration of LC, BIM, and FM. To resolve challenges, an integrated collaborative platform for disseminating differentiated knowledge and information on how to seamlessly integrate LC, BIM, and FM was developed. This integrated collaborative platform can be used by authorities to monitor progress and productivity in the construction industry. The significance of this study lies in providing a basis for organizations that intend to implement LC, BIM, and FM in an integrated manner.

“…This case study showcases the efficacy of BIM technology in effectively managing the complexities of large-scale projects. It offers tangible instances that illustrate how BIM enhances resource allocation, expedites collaboration, and minimizes environmental repercussions [5]. Construction methods are considerably impacted by BIM, which facilitates the creation of more sustainable and efficient project management strategies.…”

Introduction: This study examines the impact of building information modeling on the cost management of engineering projects, focusing specifically on the Mombasa Port Area Development Project. The objective of this research is to determine the mechanisms through which building information modeling facilitates stakeholder collaboration, reduces construction-related expenses, and enhances the precision of cost estimation. Furthermore, this study investigates barriers to execution, assesses the impact on the project’s transparency, and suggests approaches to maximize resource utilization. Methodology: This study employed a mixed-method research design comprising document reviews and surveys. During the document review, credible databases including ScienceDirect and Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Xplore were explored. The survey included 69 professionals, among which were project managers, cost estimators, and building information modeling administrators. The mixed-methods approach prioritized ethical considerations and the statistical Package for the Social Sciences and Microsoft Excel were used in the analysis. Results: The results show that building information modeling is a valuable system for organizations looking to reduce project costs. The results note that the technology improves cost estimation accuracy, facilitates the identification of cost-related risks, and promotes collaborative decision-making. Conclusions: Building information modeling is an effective cost-estimating technology that positively impacts additional project aspects such as decision-making, collaboration, performance, and delivery time. Therefore, the Mombasa Port Area Development Project should inspire other stakeholders in engineering and construction to embrace building information modeling.
