BIM quickscan: benchmark of BIM performance in the Netherlands
conference paper
In 2009 a “BIM QuickScan” for benchmarking BIM performance was created in the Netherlands (Sebastian, Berlo 2010). This instrument aims to provide insight into the current BIM performance of a company. The benchmarking instrument combines quantitative and qualitative assessments of the ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ aspects of BIM. The use of this instrument by BIM consultants in the Netherlands has taken place since early 2010. Since then, 130 scans were done within companies in different sectors that use BIM. 682 self-scans were also completed on the website. All the data of the scans, and the results were stored in a database. The overall conclusion that is drawn from the data is that the average level of BIM in The Netherlands is fairly high. On an organizational level, as well as in the mentality and culture of companies, a high BIM level is reached. However, the BIM level in the chapter Tools and applications falls behind in comparison to the maximum potential. In order to facilitate the release of the full potential of BIM in The Netherlands, further research needs to be conducted. The BIM QuickScan will continue to be used in the future in order to monitor the state of art of BIM in The Netherlands.
