The readiness implementation of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in local authority at Perak / Muhammad Ilham Mohd Shofi

Errors and reworks are common in this area due to the various phases of the building industry and its complex and comprehensive structure. As a result, BIM (Building Information Modelling) is recognised as a useful tool for reducing restrictions and increasing building efficiency. The goal of this research is to assess and analyse the readiness of the Perak Local Authority for Building Information Modelling (BIM). The three objectives that were utilised to support the research were to establish the factor, impact the use of BIM in their respective Local Authorities, and investigate the obstacles on adopting Building Information Modelling (BIM) in Local Authorities in Perak. Between 2011 and 2021, literature research was done on adoption. It covered the concept, history, planning, and execution methods, as well as the benefits of using BIM in the construction industry. The research was conducted using the indirect observation technique on three selected District Councils in Perak, and a questionnaire survey was given to 30 respondents from the importance of BIM for architects, engineers, and the construction business. The information gathered through the questionnaire survey. The findings of the observation suggest that most local governments are limited in their ability to offer enough ICT for BIM software. In other words, this study indicates that local governments must enhance their technology and provide adequate ICT for BIM software users.
