This document provides an overview of building information modeling (BIM) including its introduction, advantages, usage, examples, and future. BIM is a methodology for gathering and maintaining project information in a digital format to enable quick decision making throughout the project lifecycle. Key advantages of BIM include using consistent 3D models to capture coordinated planning and design data, providing greater project insight for cost and scheduling, and enabling prompt response to changes. BIM can be used for 3D modeling, energy analysis, 4D scheduling, 5D cost estimation, and facility management. The future of BIM is connecting digital models to physical systems for ongoing building operations and leveraging data efficiencies.
5. BIM is a methodology of gathering and
maintaining information about a project for
quick decision making throughout the life
cycle or facility cycle of the project
Design Dev./ Construction Management
7. A foundational, intelligent model-based
process for business and industry
transformation
BIM Advantages
Uses 3D models to
capture, explore,
and maintain
consistent and
coordinated
planning, design,
construction, and
operational data
Provides greater
project insight for
cost, schedule, and
constructability
Uses and shares the
same consistent data
whether you’re at your
desk or in the field
Enables prompt
response to change
with processes that
are smarter and faster

21. The future of BIM (Project lifecycle)
The relationship between digital systems and connected
physical things will only increase and strengthen
BIM empowers to capitalize
on the Era of Connection
Compare design and construction
alternatives in context
Leverage the Internet of Things for
ongoing operations
Use BIM-enabled efficiencies and
capabilities as a new baseline for
owners
