About

BIM is one of the most promising recent developments in the Architecture, Engineering, Construction and Operation (AECO) industry. BIM adoption in public works can unlock more cost-effective and transparent ways of planning, designing, creating and maintaining built assets, whether buildings or infrastructure, over their whole lifecycle. Adoption of BIM in public procurement remains a challenge as it requires a shift to a new way of working, which should be accompanied by relevant legal reforms and tools (standards, digital technology, etc.). Every new member is welcome to join the BIM and Public Procurement Community of Practice to get informed and participate in important initiatives and discussions around this topic.
