Article: If you cannot fly, then run: a model of BIM implementation taxonomies and thresholds Journal: International Journal of Information Technology and Management (IJITM) 2024 Vol.23 No.1 pp.64 - 88 Abstract: The barriers to BIM adoption are various and overpowering. These barriers should be continuously defeated through a recursive BIM implementation strategy and evaluation. The point of this paper is to recognise the key reduction indicators for tracking BIM adoption barriers and lay out whether the key reduction indicators will give a model of BIM implementation taxonomies and thresholds for assessing BIM implementation performance. Meta-analysis methodology was utilised to synthesise the diverse findings. These key reduction indicators were sorted into three BIM implementation thresholds: BIM advanced industry, BIM emerging industry, and BIM frontier industry. It was observed that BIM implementation taxonomies have various levels of the implementation plan, levels of market adequacy, and levels of goals. The study inferred that the proposed model would assist with smoothing out the necessities and instruct on the BIM implementation needs concerning different construction industries, most especially the developing construction industries.

Abstract: The barriers to BIM adoption are various and overpowering. These barriers should be continuously defeated through a recursive BIM implementation strategy and evaluation. The point of this paper is to recognise the key reduction indicators for tracking BIM adoption barriers and lay out whether the key reduction indicators will give a model of BIM implementation taxonomies and thresholds for assessing BIM implementation performance. Meta-analysis methodology was utilised to synthesise the diverse findings. These key reduction indicators were sorted into three BIM implementation thresholds: BIM advanced industry, BIM emerging industry, and BIM frontier industry. It was observed that BIM implementation taxonomies have various levels of the implementation plan, levels of market adequacy, and levels of goals. The study inferred that the proposed model would assist with smoothing out the necessities and instruct on the BIM implementation needs concerning different construction industries, most especially the developing construction industries.
