Abstract:
With the rise of the construction industry in Pakistan and the shift of
major sectors towards automating their workflow for a greater yield
overall,the adoption of Building Information Modelling (BIM) has
gained significant momentum in the construction industry. BIM
enables enhanced collaboration, improved project coordination, and
streamlined data management throughout the project lifecycle.
However, the cost implications of implementing BIM-enabled designs
have not been extensively studied, especially from an industry
perspective. This final year project aims to conduct a comprehensive
cost benefit evaluation of BIM-enabled designs, focusing on their
impact on project delivery, construction efficiency, and long-term
operation and maintenance costs. The study employs a systematic
research methodology, including a literature review, case studies, and
data collection from industry professionals and project stakeholders
and it will provide valuable insights into the economic advantages and
challenges associated with implementing BIM-enabled designs in the
Construction Industry. By highlighting the potential cost savings,
increased project efficiency, and improved decision-making
processes, this study aims to promote the wider adoption of BIM
among industry practitioners, project owners, and regulatory bodies.
The significance of this research lies in its ability to bridge the
existing knowledge gap regarding the cost benefits of BIM-enabled
designs. By establishing a comprehensive understanding of the
financial implications, this project will enable stakeholders to make
informed decisions when considering BIM implementation and help
drive industry-wide digital transformation initiatives
