• Fewer interoperability issues
• Less paper
• Latest information available to all
• Complete record of project
• Full information audit trail
• Single central repository of information
• Greater re-use of information (eg: for H&S File, standards, tendering, defects mgmt, O&M, etc)
What does it look like…?
So collaborate!

Shift from CAD to BIM• “CAD helps people to draw. BIM helps people to
construct.” (Richard Saxon, Ecobuild, February 2009)
• “BIM is not CAD. BIM was never meant to be CAD. CAD is a replacement for pen and paper, a documentation tool.” (Pete Zyskowski, Cadalyst)

“Nobody has produced an AEC system that engages the whole team, … a system that is "fun" to use. The systems are dry, like looking at the screen of a database. … What could be a communication tool becomes, in reality, a data dump.”(Jasper Singh, Gleeds, March 2010)

“Some systems we have had in place for 20 years with the same UI and design principles and younger staff look at it and laugh. ‘Design’ will play a much bigger element in future applications for the industry as it skews younger and more tech savvy.”(Sean Kaye, CEO, Incite, March 2010)

Key research agenda (2008)• Collaborative prototyping to define and
deliver client requirements
• Efficient, seamless sharing of information across the built environment stakeholders
• Ability to interact with real-time information regardless of physical location or timezone
• Mass adoption and application of off-site manufacturing, automation and mechanisation processes
• Well trained, well qualified workforce able to use the latest best practice technologies

“… enormous potential …lies in more intelligent use of ICT … in improving communications, reducing or removing transaction costs, transforming the way that buildings are designed, creating more direct links between design and fabrication/assembly, removing the coordination errors that too often block productivity etc.”(Paul Morrell, UK chief construction adviser, December 2009)
