BIM laggards 'holding construction back'

摘要

Three quarters of surveyors believe non-adoption of BIM could seriously hinder the UK construction sector over the next year, according to research published by the RICS, writes Iain Withers. The RICS survey also finds that, although a large majority of surveying firms have considered the business case for BIM adoption (74%), there is still a large proportion of firms (49%) not using BIM in the day-to-day aspects of their work. Of those not currently using BIM within their organisation, 68% of respondents said that they don't think there is enough information available to aid small companies with adoption.
