What is BIM?

BIM is a collaborative process that involves all AEC players towards a unique goal: to manage and control all aspects of a building enterprise, from concept design phases to operations & management and even demolition. BIM methodology includes the creation and use of intelligent 3D models to inform and communicate project decisions to all stakeholders.
BIM in action
The use of consistent 3D libraries with relevant info about construction materials, equipment and furnishings is crucial throughout the building lifecycle.

BIM is the new paradigm
The key to differentiate the common CAD from BIM is essentially DATA:
2D
Manual management in CAD
2D/3D
Organized CAD collaboration based on file sharing
Collaboration
3D organized BIM environment, object based model
Integration
BIM multidisciplinar model and data associated in a technology-based network

The BIM opportunity

The adoption of the directive officially called the European Union Public Procurement Directive (EUPPD) will allow all 28 EU member states to encourage, specify or mandate the use of BIM for publicly funded construction and building projects in the EU by 2016.
