The global building information modeling market is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. Building information modeling (BIM) is a process involving the generation and management of digital representations of physical and functional characteristics of places. The BIMs are files that can be extracted, exchanged, or networked to support decision-making regarding a building or the other built asset.
Current BIM software is used by individuals, businesses, buildings, and government agencies that plan, design, construct, operate, and maintain diverse physical infrastructures, such as water, refuse, electricity, gas, communication utilities, roads, bridges, ports, tunnels, etc.
Building information modeling is used in the construction industry for designing and managing projects throughout their life cycle. The overall value chain of the building information modeling market is closely interlinked with the traditional construction processes. They have been expanding rapidly and shaping into a strong, well-connected chain over the past few years.
Several new product developments and software models are witnessed owing to the application of building information modeling in various verticals. The market is led by construction in the commercial sector such as retail and office buildings.
High electricity usage in commercial buildings and the rise in energy costs have been driving the usage of buildings information modeling in construction for efficient power and improved electrical system design for reducing costs, decreasing wastage, and in the overall retrofit improvements.
The rapidly increasing number of construction projects, globally rising awareness of BIM and associated benefits, and the increasing demand for automated models in architecture, engineering, and construction (ACE) industry have been facilitating its adaptation in the construction industry, especially for commercial and infrastructure projects. Moreover, government mandates regarding usage of BIM in building constructions would boost it in adoption worldwide.
