Abstract

Many literatures propose that project organization should be changed when implementing Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology. However, few literatures provide detailed analysis on this issue. Based on the comparative analysis with traditional technology in construction industry and innovation technology in other industry, the practice traits of BIM technology is analyzed. Four practice traits of BIM technology are proposed: inter-organization, high embedded levels of task interdependence, non-customizability, and technology exogenous. Then, based on the practice traits of BIM and theories on the relationship of Information Technology and organization, the relationship between construction organization and BIM technology is analyzed. The findings have important significance to construction organization with BIM technology assimilation and implementation.
