UK BIM Alliance State of the Nation Survey
In a bid to measure the understanding and adoption of information management using BIM across the UK built environment, the UK BIM Alliance have launched its annual State of the Nation Survey.
This survey will give a reliable indication of the progress towards a business-as-usual state for project delivery and asset management using the standards, tools and guidance provided under the UK BIM Framework.
Pam Bhandal, UK BIM Alliance Engagement Lead, “The survey is almost identical to last year with the addition of some technology questions, which you can choose to answer or not. Whether you have experience of BIM or not, we want to hear from everyone involved in the UK built environment.”
With support from our Affiliates, Technology Group, Communities and Ambassadors we are hoping to cover the breadth of disciplines across the industry. The survey will run for six weeks with initial results being available in May.
CIAT are encouraging professionals to respond, the survey should take no longer than 3 minutes to complete. To show our appreciation of your time, each respondent to complete the survey will be entered in a draw to win a £100 gift voucher.
Two links are available, one for CIAT members and one for everyone else:
