Technology is transforming the way that buildings and infrastructure are designed, constructed, and operated. And it’s helping to improve decision making and performance across the building and infrastructure lifecycle. The adoption of Building Information Modelling or BIM technology can help optimize work and company processes. However, BIM is far from self-explanatory. It’s a rather complex concept that leaves people with a lot of questions. What is BIM? What can BIM do? How does BIM work? Each question has multiple answers, which opens the possibility for a wide range of misconceptions. This can create a barrier for those trying to adopt BIM. We speak to the founder and CEO of Reveron Consulting, Mr. Ravi Koka, to clear the air on these misconceptions and answer some of these questions about BIM.
