BIM's Impact on Project Management Performance

Prior studies on the impact of building information modeling (BIM) on project management performance (PMP) have mainly focused on different business types or projects. However, few quantitative studies have explored the impact of BIM adoption on PMP across employees' experience, company's BIM percentage, and countries. To address this gap, a survey was carried out on 229 BIM-related practitioners to collect their perceptions of BIM's impact on PMP for real-world projects. The survey results indicated that BIM contributed the most to early problem detection and the use of coordination tools, but less to safety management. Significant differences were observed between respondents with less and more than five years of experience, and companies with less and more than 30% BIM percentages. No significant differences were found, except for safety management, between countries including and excluding the US. This study contributes to the understanding of BIM's impact on PMP at multiple levels.
