Title: | Profound barriers to building information modelling (BIM) adoption in construction small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) : an interpretive structural modelling approach | Authors: | Saka, AB Chan, DWM |
Issue Date: | 2020 | Source: | Construction innovation, 2020, v. 20, no. 2, p. 261-284 | Abstract: | Purpose: This study aims to evaluate and investigate the dynamics of the barriers to building information modelling (BIM) adoption from the perspective of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in developing countries with the Nigerian construction industry as a case study. Design/methodology/approach: An interpretive structural modelling approach was adopted to develop a hierarchical model of the interrelationships of the barriers. Also, the Matrice d’Impacts croises-multipication applique a classement analysis was used for categorisation of the barriers. Findings: The findings revealed that the barriers are from a sociotechnical context and that SMEs have the will to drive BIM adoption by focussing more on their internal environment. Originality/value: This study presented the adoption of BIM in SMEs, which is underrepresented in extant studies. Also, it contributes to the nascent discussion of BIM from the perspective of SMEs in developing countries. |
