- Abstract:
This study attempts to identify and assess the individual perceptions of building information modelling (BIM) benefits and implementation barriers in the construction industry in Algeria from architects’ perspective. An investigation was carried out through survey questionnaires distributed to Algerian architects with different profiles. A total of 100 questionnaires were used for the study. A subgroup analysis was conducted to investigate the differences in the individual perception of the different groups of architects segmented according to the respondent’s work type, organisation size, experience length and computeraided design (CAD) and BIM knowledge. The findings of the study revealed that the most important barriers to BIM implementation were people and policy factors. The subgroup analysis revealed that the architects working for design firms were more aware and had more readiness for adopting BIM compared to those working for project owners and contractors. Moreover, there were differences in the BIM maturity level between the large and small organisations in Algeria. It was concluded that at the actual BIM maturity level, BIM implementation would not occur without the implication of local authorities and policymakers, as they have a significant impact on promoting and accelerating BIM adoption in the country.
