Investigating the Challenges of Implementing Building Information Modeling (BIM) Technology: A Case Study of Construction Sites in Birjand City, South Khorasan Center, Iran

Abstract

Today, knowledge and information are the most important variables for the comprehensive growth of economic organizations and are considered valuable and reliable resources of particular importance. The execution of operations in large-scale civil projects is classified as knowledge-based activities. Inevitably, the implementation of such projects leads to the emergence of new knowledge in technical and engineering issues and the strategic management of successful projects. Building information modeling (BIM) is not merely a technology; rather, it is a system that also encompasses other aspects of a large project, such as stakeholder relationships and project delivery processes. Furthermore, BIM is a collaborative method among project stakeholders, utilizing modern technologies to facilitate design and construction processes. In this research, the challenges of implementing BIM technology in construction sites in Birjand City, South Khorasan Center, Iran are evaluated statistically. The research indicates that equipping seasoned professionals with specialized BIM training, promoting effective communication, and providing leadership support are effective strategies for facilitating organizational change. Further investigation is required to comprehend how demographic factors influence BIM implementation.
