1. INTRODUCTION
The infrastructure sector is the largest sector, encompassing numerous activities, tasks, and substantial information
management. Achieving better performance requires accurate, real-time access to project data. Managing
infrastructure projects is challenging, with a high risk of errors. Thus, it is crucial for everyone on-site to report
progress, address problems, and ask questions promptly and efficiently. Insufficient information can lead to poor
productivity and rework, contributing to time and cost overruns. A revolutionary technology Building Information
Modeling (BIM) can mitigate, the need for re-formatting, re-gathering, and reworking data (Matthews, 2015). Several
factors hinder performance improvements in the infrastructure sector: the competitive bidding system, project-specific
nature of construction, the temporary and nature of relationships.
The integration of real-time data capturing using the lacheck mechanism alongside BIM holds substantial promise in
enhancing resolution-making processes within the infrastructure sector. This approach not only enhances automation
levels, as evidenced particularly in mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) sectors, but also presents opportunities
for more efficiency and accuracy. However, despite its potential benefits, numerous factors impede the broad
implementation of these mechanisms in most infrastructure projects, as highlighted by Yitmen (2018). Nevertheless,
there has been noticeable growth in recent years, indicating a gradual shift towards embracing new mechanism within
the Indian construction sector. This trend indicates an increasing acknowledgment of the threshold and potential of
modern mechanism in enhancing project outcomes and overall industry performance.

portrayal. It conveys a compatible visual system and a common technology of designed construction that could be
stretched out to observing stage.
Bryan [3] indicated the starting proof of concept on merging RFID mechanism with DRONE mechanism to expand
construction site logistics delivery management. This research provides concept validation and highlights
technological challenges like the continuous exchange uniting RFID transponder frequencies & drone telemetry.
Experimental findings show that an RFID transponder mounted at drone can recognize and show the geolocation of
targeted items. Significant mechanical limitations comprehend the mass of the RFID transponder and the distance
between the transponder and the tags. The experimental findings of this proof of concept stipulate that drones
equipped with RFID accomplishable to supply details for logistics delivery management processes and can be
integrated with Building Information Models (BIM).
Yiannis [4] found out through his study that the penalty and claims for reimbursement to the contractors and builders
for the delay in time which could be more than normal cost. Hence innovative technology and machinery should be
used to alleviate time delay and cost overrun. This proof of concept covers modern usage of Building Information
Modeling (BIM) and drone mechanism within infrastructure sector for data collection and monitoring. It highlights
how usage of drones & BIM can lead efficient data gathering and tracking of a project's progress throughout its
lifecycle, resulting in more accurate record keeping, task management, and later analysis.
Matthews [5] found out through his study the persuasiveness of cybernetical BIM for quick transmission. It indicates
how steps can be better prepared to upgrade the transfer of information and permit the time-management (4D) and
money-part (5D) over integrating mechanism (as RFID tags /Ray tags, AR and frame by frame Camera’s) with BIM in
real-time by using cloud based BIM collaboration. Jane and peter used data gathering method in this paper which were
amorphous examination and document recording sources. This method was adopted to ensure that the suggested
system could be combined with existing process.
Fan-Xue [6] stated a certain RFID accustomed recognise materials and improves quick transmission of information
