Abstract | Building information modeling (BIM) is believed to provide a good communication platform for early
involvement of various stakeholders. Therefore, it is widely advocated in both academic and industry.
Gradually, BIM has been required by the client in the tendering. However the BIM would be useless and
costly if the client could not clearly specify the requirements in the tendering document. Herein, it is quite
important to investigate whether BIM specifications in the tendering document are clear and concrete.
However, it was quite difficult to get such contracts through public and free means. Yet, it was found that
some standards or guidelines issued by relevant institutions are mentioned in tendering. Therefore, this
study converts the comparison of tendering documents of BIM into comparison of relevant BIM
standards and guidelines. Common items as well as the differences of the BIM standards/guidelines in
five countries/areas were investigated. Based on the results, this study further provides a list of BIM
specifications used by the keen clients for tendering. |
