We often see small firms and emerging practices struggle with implementing BIM. Many don’t fully grasp the benefits of BIM or find it hard to integrate into their current workflow. A big issue is treating BIM as a separate step, which leads to duplicate efforts, teams, and budgets. This inefficient cycle means designers create plans using traditional 2D or 3D tools, only for a separate BIM team to later rebuild them. This double handling wastes time and resources. For example, on a typical small residential project costing around ₹50 lakhs, the traditional method might involve the design team creating 2D drawings first, followed by a BIM team recreating these in a 3D model. This can lead to an extra ₹5-10 lakhs in costs due to duplicated efforts and extended timelines. One major reason for this inefficiency is that many popular BIM tools are seen as complex and hard to use. Designers often find these tools tiring, making them reluctant to adopt BIM from the start. As a result, tasks get duplicated, coordination becomes messy, and timeline delays. Firms that have fully integrated BIM into their workflow have seen project costs decrease by up to 20% and project timelines shortened by 30%. Let’s work together to end the cycle of duplication and embrace a more efficient, integrated approach with BIM. Ready to transform your workflow ez-ly? #cookingup #workflow #BIMforall #architecture

In recent years, a surge in BIM training courses has swept the industry, by emphasizing BIM as essential for professional growth. While promising placements in large companies, MNCs, this trend has led to an oversupply of BIM-trained professionals, with around 60% of them struggling to find suitable job opportunities, creating downward pressure on salaries. 1. Supply vs. Demand Disparity: Supply: With an almost 30% annual growth in BIM-trained professionals, the market is saturated. Demand: The demand for such professionals in large firms, MNCs has not kept pace, resulting in an oversupply issue. 2. Challenges for Small Firms: Awareness Gap: Despite the abundance of BIM-trained professionals, many small firms remain unaware of the benefits and potential of BIM. Resource Constraints: Limited budgets and lack of internal expertise make it challenging for small firms, emerging practices to invest in BIM training and software adoption. Risk Aversion: Fear of change and reluctance to disrupt existing workflows prevent many such small firms from exploring BIM as viable option. Solution?
