Abstract
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a promising development that can address the inherited inefficiencies in construction. This research aims to develop a framework for assessing BIM effectiveness. Following an extensive literature review and expert opinions, the proposed framework was generated with a total of seven constructs. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was used to validate the proposed framework and test the research hypotheses based on 172 responses collected from 107 construction projects. The results revealed that BIM effectiveness is mainly governed by project- and company-based factors; where industry-based factors have indirect influences. Besides, BIM effectiveness drives higher process effectiveness, which in turn generates project- and company-related benefits. This research has developed an interactive framework that could be used to collect and analyze data from other countries to enable comparison of findings. Construction practitioners and policy-makers can benefit from the recommended strategies to enhance BIM effectiveness at project, company, and industry levels. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.
