Analysis of the adoption of Building Information Modelling (BIM) across the EU
The publication highlights the national strategies, public procurement practices, standards, funding schemes, education, lifecycle BIM, and collaboration with the industry for each country. As an example, Austria is at an initial stage with no national strategy, while Denmark has advanced digital construction with BIM mandatory since 2007. The document also discusses the integration of BIM in education and vocational training, with countries like Finland and Estonia showing high participation rates.
Additionally, the report outlines the development of national templates and standards to support BIM adoption, such as the COBIM guidelines in Finland and the ÜBN manual in Estonia. It also emphasises the importance of public-private collaboration, as seen in Germany's BIM Stufenplan and Ireland's Build Digital Project. The analysis reveals that while some countries like Italy and Lithuania have mandated BIM for public projects, others like Greece and Hungary are still in the early stages of adoption.
Overall, the document provides valuable insights into the varying levels of BIM maturity and the efforts being made to promote its adoption across the EU.
