The BIM (Building Information Modeling) methodology goes beyond a planning and execution process in construction and engineering, it is the development of a project through the generation and management during its life cycle, using dynamic modeling software in three dimensions, and in real-time to reduce the loss of time and resources. 

BIM facilitates the planning and control of the design process and subsequent construction of projects. This competitive advantage has helped position BIM in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, and the United Arab Emirates. 

The origin of the BIM methodology is not attributed to any country or organization, it is born from the collaboration of information between different users, this process encompasses geometry, spatial relationships, geographic information, as well as quantities and properties of components.

Importance

This methodology is important because it centralizes all project information in a single information model, which offers an advantage over traditional design systems. For this reason and more, the BIM environment is used in the creation of required 3D simulations, in addition to providing a database on the building. 

Benefits 

Among its main benefits are:

• Better management of data and information between projects.
• Cost and time optimization.
• It allows to foresee and anticipate problems in the project.
• Project visualization during preconstruction.
• Improved lifetime management of facilities and buildings.
