Analysis of the national experience in BIM implementation

Abstract

This article presents the results of a systematic analysis of nationwide implementation of BIM technology in the architecture and construction industry. The factors influencing this process are identified and structured. The analysis of these factors is based on five examples. To identify and compare differences in the processes, the authors considered the implementation in developed and developing countries – the USA, Singapore, the UK, Kazakhstan and Russia. In all cases, the first implementation programmes and their results were examined. The article provides a comprehensive assessment of each country’s implementation experience, taking into account the identified factors. The analysis methodology presented in the article is proposed for use and improvement in new studies of nationwide implementation of BIM to evaluate foreign and local experiences.
