No business can afford to ignore how its market is changing and evolving. This is especially true for manufacturers of building products as an ever-increasing focus on improving efficiency and reducing build cost puts innovative technology like Building Information Modelling centre stage<\/h2>\n

This ebook from Graitec<\/a>, one of Europe’s largest independent authors of CAD, CAE and BIM software<\/a>, examines the effects of BIM on the building supply chain and why manufacturers who are not providing BIM-compliant product models for specifiers risk being left behind.<\/p>\n

It discusses how to define a BIM object, how the ‘as-built’ reliability of having a portfolio of BIM-compliant objects can win market share and the future of BIM, including a look ahead to the move to BIM Level 3 by 2025.<\/p>\n

With the lines between construction and manufacturing becoming increasingly blurred as offsite building grows<\/a>, there has never been a better time to take the plunge on becoming BIM-compliant – and Graitec can help.<\/p>\n

The ebook also highlights some recent developments in the world of BIM and construction innovation<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Peter Caplehorn, deputy chief executive and policy director of the Construction Products Association, discusses the value of digital technologies in creating a more efficient construction industry and the important progress made in developing consistent product data.<\/p>\n

In addition, there is a guide to the British Board of Agrement’s BIM Object Assurance Scheme<\/a>, which aims to verify that BIM objects are of the quality required by specifiers and modellers.<\/p>\n

Finally, Chris Ashworth, a member of the BIM for Manufacturing (BIM4M2) steering group, discusses the key areas for innovation in construction products and looks at some recent research into how decision-makers in the sector are adopting technology.<\/p>\n

From BIM to Industry 4.0, the Circular Economy<\/a> and the growth of offsite, this ebook highlights the importance of keeping pace with innovation.<\/p>\n
