Description
Summary:Building Information Modelling (BIM) is an innovative approach within the architectural, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry that has been globally adopted. Despite Malaysia’s construction industry experiencing substantial growth and technological advancements, a significant proportion of AEC firms remain uninterested in BIM due to anticipated challenges. This study aims to explore the hurdles hindering BIM implementation specifically within the Johor region of Malaysia’s AEC construction sector. Data were gathered through a survey and analyzed using the Average Index method. The findings highlight several key factors impeding BIM adoption, notably a lack of awareness regarding its benefits among stakeholders, inadequate standardization in government regulations, and the high costs associated with software licenses. Addressing these barriers is crucial for stakeholders to devise effective strategies for overcoming obstacles and fostering the adoption of BIM in construction practices.
