Procurement process is rigid and relies on a bureaucratic outlook which isn't favorable for smaller firms. The existing UK procurement rules, or at least the Scottish regulations, go beyond than the requirement by the EU and therefore; Brexit is questionable to have a substantial impression on procurement.

UK's BIM mandate will always be the sung hero. It has quite well justified the use of BIM, beginning from architects to manufacturers. It has proved to be beyond just a target. This decision will enhance the building process in UK industry for decades to come.

BIM has a distinctive ability to identify clashes, interventions and omissions before the construction work starts. BIM software like Navisworks simulates clash detection to allow assessment of risks, and plan mitigation strategies during the development process.

Qatar Infrastructure industry needs to gear up to digitize the construction process by implementing BIM ASAP by partnering with BIM architectural service providers. Qatarian Government now carries a huge responsibility on its shoulder to not just finish the project but finish it on time and in given budget.

To those great minds involved in delivery phase of projects, 5D BIM is a blessing in disguise. Cost manager offers utmost value through their Cost planning, at the conceptual front end stages of a project by providing Cost advice and estimates on various Design proposals and then refining those estimates as the design evolves.

With no doubt, BIM is all-rounder of the construction industry, especially when it comes to payment related declarations or supply chain. BIM helps the contractors, general contractors and sub-contractors to contribute expenditures according to the works, material & process activities.

BIM is the digital representation of a construction process and beyond. It ensures that all the data that is crucial to run a facility smoothly is accumulated throughout the design and construction process.

Today an architecture, engineering, & construction industry adopts BIM processes for design, construction, and post-construction operations & management of the facility, the function of drawing and drafting complex MEP systems is also changing.

MEP layout in a big facility is so complicated that it becomes time consuming and causes waste of resources if not planned properly. BIM has proved to be a useful tool for determining various options and remove the hindrances.

Up until two weeks back, only very digitally savvy people were heard using the term Augmented Reality - AR. Pokemon Go has turned the tables drastically bringing in immense awareness about AR. the truth is that many contractors and architects are experimenting with AR as a visualization tool, which means the technology is already being used in the built environment as part of the architectural and structural design process.

Holistic approach has become the new mantra of architects and engineers worldwide! Building and construction industry is evolving really fast, and therefore, successful development and assembling of structure depends on an inclusive and process-driven approach.Going by these lines

Today's construction industry relies heavily on robust steel development. Accurate structural engineering promises sturdy buildings that withstand unexpected natural disasters. Engineers, fabricators, constructors and builders are extensively assisted by structural steel detailers and play a vital role across the construction process.

We cannot forget the role played by human interactions to grow the business and sustain it even in static market economies. Increased efficiency in data processing, and increased access to both the direct communications and reaching out to new markets conveniently, are amongst the main benefits of technology that we see and feel every day.
