McGraw-Hill Construction Business Value of BIM for Owners Report

Facility owners currently using BIM, plan to actively increase their use of BIM on more than three quarters of their projects over the next two years.

Top BIM benefits perceived by owners include:

BIM visualization to enable better understanding of design.
Fewer problems during construction from deficient documents or coordination.
More well-reasoned design due to BIM analysis and simulation.
Beneficial impact on the project schedule.

- Taking the Mystery Out of BIM for Owners & Principals | CM-BIM Classes -

Excerpt: As owners expand their BIM involvement, there is a growing need for them to understand how best to enable their project teams to provide them with he greatest BIM value. In other words, what makes a good "BIM owner"? Several experienced AEC firms offer perspectives on that question.

Excerpts:

Design-Bid-Build: 38% of architects and 22% of contractors find this to be the best system to reduce project cost.

RSMeans: 2014 Report Indicates 50% of US Projects over $10M use Design-Build

Design-Build: 43% of architects and 50% of contractors find this to be the best system to reduce project schedule, and a higher percentage of owners using this method report projects finishing ahead of schedule than with the other two systems.

Construction Management at Risk: A higher percentage of owners doing projects that employ this system find that their projects that employ this system find that their projects are under budget(33%) and 60% report being very satisfied with the projects they have conducted, which is at least 20 percentage points higher than those using design-bid-build or design-build.

McGraw-Hill BIM Report | Measuring the Impact of BIM on Complex Buildings

BIM Report Contributors: 391 owners, architects, engineers and contractors indicated they had a moderate to high level knowledge on the use of BIM within their organization.

40 Owners
183 Architects
68 Engineers
100 General Contractors

Excerpts:

However, by 2015, many companies have gained deep experience with the use of BIM. Therefore, we believe the time has come to take the critical next step in the research and to establish the specific level of impact BIM has on 10 types of design and construction activities.

To do so, we asked respondents to quantify the positive impact of BIM for six specific metricsthat could be measured in terms of percentage of improvement. The research focuses specifically on complex projects because they offer the best opportunity to experience the powerful benefits BIM provides.

These 10 Activities of Planning, Design and Construction defined the real Impact of BIM on Key Outcomes for Complex Projects:

BIM Impact on Owner Engagement and Understanding
BIM Impact on Design
BIM Impact on Documentation and Constructability
BIM Impact on Estimating and Bidding
BIM Impact on Construction Phasing and Logistics
BIM Impact on Contractors' Understanding of Design Intent
BIM Impact on Cost Control and Reduction
BIM Impact on Schedule and Project Duration
BIM Impact on Unplanned Changes, Rework and Out-of-Sequence Work
BIM Impact on Labor, Safety and Material Waste

6 Metrics for the Impact of BIM on Complex Projects
