The use of Building Information Modeling
(BIM)
is a common practice and a requirement in some countries around the
world due to the
number of benefits and cost savings available. Benefits
include better coordination, faster and more accurate scheduling,
smarter change control, optimised project planning, leaner
construction and structured facility management; with the ability
to make better informed decisions based on reliable
information.There
have been many studies on the
impact of BIM on
project
cost
with
claims of major contractors such as
"Merko"
Ltd.
saving
at least 10% of the total project budget compared
to a non-BIM project. Similar conclusions have been made in the
Latvia State Real EstateBIM pilot project
which we have the opportunity to manage. However, successful
BIM
implementation
requires careful preparation, following
these 3 steps
will help
to
get
the most out of BIM.
