Users who are to adopt BIM need to be encouraged by using empirical evidence. Investors also need to justify their investment of time and budget in BIM by discerning clear proof of its benefits. Research has shown that one of the major hurdles for adopting BIM is the justification of the additional cost and benefits.

By applying crowd-sourcing methodology to populating a prototype benchmarking tool, the research team aims to break down barriers of data and know-how ownership to encourage industry innovation to flow more freely. In particular, this research aims to answer the following questions: (i) Is self-assessed benchmarking a reasonable approach in assessing the performance of BIM at the project level?; (ii) Is crowd sourcing a valid method to populate the prototype? If so, how should the most appropriate metrics for benchmarking performance of BIM be selected?; (iii) What methods can be used to ensure the comparability, accuracy and consistency of the data input by users? The research described addresses these questions through an extensive literature review to build a foundation for future research combining the development and testing of a prototype tool with case studies and expert consultation in Australia and Sweden. This paper discusses key concepts used to develop the prototype and the requisite research being undertaken.

This paper presents a literature review into issues related toBuilding Information Modelling(BIM)... more This paper presents a literature review into issues related toBuilding Information Modelling(BIM) performance assessment in building management organisations and proposes an agenda for future research addressing how such an approach can be further developed. Performance in use of BIM can be described as a measure or description of how capable and mature a project team or organisation is in terms of developing, using, evaluating or receiving BIM products or services. Although BIM is awell-known and established methodology in building design and construction organisations, when procuring and executing projects, the building management side, encompassingbuilding operations and maintenance, usually lags behind. Adoption of BIM in building management has become a challenge addressed in discussions on what the next step for BIM uptake will be. By adapting and using solutions that, to an extent, have already been developed for other stages in the construction delivery process, BIM can contribute to benefits for the operations/management phase of buildings. In order to prove efficiency and applicability of BIM as a methodology in building management operations, approaches to assess actual performancearenecessary. Thispaper describes development of a possible approach of assessing BIM performance through self-assessment. It is identified that pre-requisites in the form of default performance indicators, referred to as BIM Performance Indicators (BPI) have to be established for such methodology to be possible. In order to distinguish these BPIs, new data through input from practitioners has to be gathered. This paper suggests that a case study aiming to gather data from practitioners for this development is a suitable vehicle for identifying these indicators underpinning assessment of BIM performance specific to organisations within the building management sector. The paper concludes thatappropriate dimensions in which significance for BIM use in building management organisationsshould be sought in a case study are (1) Technology, (2) Knowledge, (3) Communication, (4) Processes and (5) Organisational culture and motivation.

Australia is experiencing an era of strong enquiry and activity around DE and integrated project delivery throughout the construction industry (Shemery and Hampson, 2018). Digital Engineering has the potential to significantly impact asset intensive organisations that are seeking to improve value from assets across the end-to-end asset lifecycle (TfNSW, 2018). However, the Australian Government Productivity Commission Report (Sanchez et al, 2014) made a series of recommendations to the infrastructure industry where Building Information Modelling (BIM) was featured. Among other things, this report highlighted that: there is a widespread view that there was scope for more innovation and diffusion of new technologies in the industry but hinting to the need for a more efficient nation-wide approach to adopt BIM/DE. The Sustainable Built Environment National Research Centre (SBEnrc) has been a leading Australian entity bringing industry, government and research institutes around Australia together to jointly identify, manage and deliver industry research projects. The Centre's focussed eighteen month research projects are addressing industry's current project delivery and management problems and demonstrating how DE could improve industry performance. This paper demonstrates how applying integrated digital engineering in the built environment sector can progress in Australia through an industry-led research into practice approach supported by case studies.

In order to promote BIM and other digital engineering technologies for more effective use in informed asset management decisions, the Sustainable Built Environment National Research Centre (SBEnrc) Project 2.51 focused on a comprehensive review of digital asset management practices, including asset data exchange, asset classification, asset location referencing and asset information requirements. This Digital Asset Information Management: Case Studies is one of three documents produced by SBEnrc Project 2.51 Developing a Cross Sector Digital Asset Information Model Framework for Asset Management. The three documents are complementary: 1. Digital Asset Information Management: Research Report 2. Digital Asset Information Management (DAIM): A Guide and Manual 3. Digital Asse...
