What is BIM?

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a process supported by various tools, technologies and contracts involving the generation and management of digital representations of physical and functional characteristics of places. BIM is used to create a comprehensive digital description of a building, infrastructure or other built asset. This model becomes a rich source of information for planning, design, construction, and operation. It helps stakeholders visualize, analyze, and efficiently manage projects.
