Abstract

Collaborating with design, engineering, and construction stakeholders to establish an effective project organization for driving building information modeling (BIM) implementation remains a challenge. For BIM implementation in the design and construction stages of projects delivered using the design-bid-build method, there are many types of BIM implementation organizations. Organizational effectiveness reflects an organization’s ability to realize its BIM application goals. This paper aims to analyze and compare the effectiveness of different organization types. Based on organizational effectiveness theory and using social network analysis methods, the authors proposed a quantitative approach to analyze the effectiveness of the different types of BIM implementation organizations. This approach was validated using a case study. The empirical results reveal that the owner-driven and architect-led organization type is the most effective, and the performance of owner-driven organization types is better than those driven by architects or contractors. When implementing BIM, project organizations should involve participants from a greater number of different disciplines. Project organizations should also build a greater number of direct social relationships between all project participants.
