Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a very broad term that describes the process of creating and managing digital information about built assets such as buildings, bridges, highways, tunnels and so on.

On 14 April 2016, the [https://www.thenbs.com/knowledge/national-bim-report-2016 National BIM Report 2016] was published by NBS. NBS is owned by RIBA Enterprises Ltd, part of the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) and its products include the national standard specification system for the UK.

It came just 10 days after the government mandate came into force requiring fully collaborative 3D BIM (with all project and asset information, documentation and data being electronic) as a minimum on centrally-procured public projects. This represents a minimum requirement for Level 2 BIM.

More than 50% of the respondents cited in the report were architects or architectural technologists, and approximately a third from London and the south east.

54 were aware of and using BIM (up from 48% the previous year) whilst 42% were just aware of BIM.

However, 28% were not confident, or not at all confident in their knowledge of, and skills in BIM.

People were generally more likely to use BIM in public sector projects but there was evidence of significant BIM adoption in the private sector for housing, offices and leisure facilities.
