Reaching the promised land of BIM
An explorative study on Dutch building projects
Master thesis
(2018)
-
Lauren Veerhuis, Hans de Bruijn, Alexander Koutamanis, Haiko van der Voort, Maarten Zwemmer, Toine Bullens
Despite the importance of the transition between the project and operation phase in Dutch building projects, both literature and practice show that the is in most cases this transition is not proceeding properly. Unstructured and incomplete two-dimensional documents are handed over and are inefficient and ineffective for use during the operation and maintenance of the building. This research investigates in how Building Information Modeling (BIM) can offer support in the improvement of the transition between the project and operation phase. The results show that BIM only working with BIM is not a solution for the issues that relate to the transition between the project and operation phase. BIM is a tool that can provide support but it is not a stand-alone solution for the structural problems in the building industry. If one wants to prevent the issues associated with the transition between to project and operation phase, the information management processes for which BIM is a supportive tool, need to be redesigned.
