[White Paper] McGraw Hill Construction Smart Market Report for BIM

McGraw Hill Construction public a Smart Market Report for Building Information Modeling (BIM)

Costruction is a team sport, and BIM is dramatically reshaping the way project teams work together to increase productivity and improve outcomes for all. This is driving the most transformative evolution the construction industry has ever experienced. To help everyone in the industry better understand the breadth and depth of this phenomenon McGraw-Hill Construction is very excited to publish the SmartMarket Report on Building Information Modeling: Transforming Design and Construction to Achieve Greater Industry Productivity.

This report, produced in collaboration with 23 construction industry organizations — including 15 associations and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers— is based on extensive interviews with
hundreds of owners, architects, civil, structural, and MEP engineers, construction managers, general contractors and trade contractors who are currently using BIM. The goal was to determine knowledgeable users’ perceptions of BIM adoption, implementation, value and impact within their firms. We also wanted to measure BIM user perspectives on the developing elements of a BIM infrastructure including standards, content, software, training and certification; and on the use of BIM on green “sustainable” projects.
