BIM implementation is more than a simple clause in a contract that says to use BIM. BIM implementation poses a complex new set of risk allocation and management challenges. Fortunately, the industry has caught up to the technology and several sets of BIM contract addendums and implementation guides have emerged from various organizations. Despite the new thinking required, BIM has been proven to be a better way of building, and is more likely to reduce claims and legal issues.
Join our expert panel to learn how to match BIM usages, including model sharing, management and ownership, to the various project delivery systems and standard contract forms commonly used today.
