Key Market Trends Fueling Growth

The construction industry has seen a shift towards more advanced building information modeling (BIM) solutions to enhance project efficiency and accuracy. While 3D BIM provides a three-dimensional representation of building designs, it lacks integration for time and cost factors. This gap led to the emergence of 5D BIM, an evolution of 4D BIM, which considers five dimensions including time, cost, and labor productivity. With 5D BIM, investors can easily access crucial information such as deviations from the pre-determined project schedule and budget, an in-house database with complete cost and labor productivity details, efficient preparation of cost schedules, and real-time cost estimation for quick comparisons with the target cost. The development of 5D BIM solutions is expected to significantly contribute to the growth of the global BIM software market during the forecast period. 

The BIM software market is thriving as construction companies embrace digital technology for more efficient operations. BIM technology offers digital representations of buildings, enabling cost estimation tools for budgeting and cost control during the project life cycle. Contractors benefit from construction schedules and sequencing plans, while architects and engineers use BIM software for planning & modeling. Government mandates drive market growth, with many mandating BIM usage in the construction sector. Initial expenditure on BIM software can be high, but long-term benefits include virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) for project visualization, IoT sensors for facility management, and maintenance. BIM solutions come in on-premise and cloud-based deployment modes, catering to various building types – commercial and residential. The market includes components for construction & design, asset management, and project visualization, streamlining decision-making processes. Product launches continue, with innovations in cost control, contractor collaboration, and real-time data access. Despite the benefits, low productivity due to initial expenditure and learning curve hinder widespread adoption. However, the trend towards digital construction is undeniable, with BIM technology set to revolutionize the construction sector.

Market Challenges

The global BIM (Building Information Modeling) software market growth is hindered by the high cost of these solutions. Small architectural and engineering firms in the construction industry find it challenging to adopt BIM software due to its expensive price tag. These software packages come with numerous modules for various applications, but they offer minimal value for SMEs with smaller project sizes. The high cost of training and support, as well as ongoing maintenance fees, further impedes market expansion. Additionally, the ongoing geopolitical conflict between Russia and Ukraine has disrupted the supply chain for construction materials, leading to increased implementation and operating costs. These rising costs may deter potential adopters of BIM software, thereby hindering market growth during the forecast period.The Building Information Modeling (BIM) market is growing rapidly, driven by the need for efficient construction operations and digital transformation in the industry. However, challenges persist, such as the integration of AR and VR technologies like Bentley Systems Incorporated’s iTwin platform for project visualization. Deployment modes, including on-premise and cloud-based solutions, impact the commercial viability of BIM software for various building types, from commercial to residential. BIM software solutions facilitate planning & modeling, construction & design, asset management, and facility management. Challenges include initial expenditure, low productivity, and process changes. Training and education are essential for successful BIM implementation. Government mandates and IoT sensors play a role in driving BIM adoption. Bentley’s engineering applications, such as structural engineering and steel fabrication management, address specific challenges. Product launch and decision-making processes are streamlined through BIM technology, enhancing project life cycle efficiency. BIM software and hardware require careful data management, especially during the construction phase. Contractors and architects/engineers benefit from BIM’s ability to improve collaboration and coordination. Project visualization and maintenance are essential components of BIM solutions. The construction sector continues to evolve, with digital construction and IoT sensors shaping the future of the industry. Bentley’s infrastructure cloud offers a comprehensive solution for managing BIM data and facilitating efficient construction operations.
