This allows a range of professionals—architects, engineers, construction managers, surveyors, cost estimators, project managers, and facility managers—to share this information throughout a building's lifecycle. BIM is now recognized worldwide for the efficiencies it delivers in terms of working collaboratively, communication, processes, cost savings, and a property's lifecycle management.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWith the widespread adoption of BIM, BIM Managers have become a much-needed new breed of professionals in architectural, engineering, and construction practice. Their role is often misunderstood and ill-defined, and such are the day-to-day deliverables that they are likely to face. \u003ci\u003eThe BIM Manager's Handbook\u003c\/i\u003e provides an in-depth account of the breadth of activities that any BIM Manager or staff member, who is actively engaged in the delivery of project, is required to undertake.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eProviding prereleases of the final work, \u003ci\u003eThe BIM Manager's Handbook \u003c\/i\u003eePart series isolates significant topics around BIM management. In the sixth and final ePart, BIM is taken to the next level by outlining what is required to truly excel as a BIM Manager. It highlights how BIM Managers acquire the necessary communication skills to maximize an efficient information flow between the BIM Manager and others. It illustrates how BIM Managers tie their activities to cutting-edge BIM research and development globally. Lastly, this ePart lays out how to promote BIM excellence both within an organization and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e Acknowledgements ix \u003cp\u003eIntroduction Why BIM Managers Count! 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe BIM Manager: Focus on the Person behind the Title 2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHands-On BIM 6\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRevelations and Surprises 8\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 1 Best Practice BIM 11\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBIM Managers: Breaking Ground 12\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Rise and Rise of BIM 13\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDefining Good, or Even “Best Practice,” BIM 17\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhen BIM Goes Wrong — Examples of “Bad BIM” 22\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Tipping Point — How Do You Become Successful Using BIM? 29\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBenchmarking BIM 35\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 2 Change Management 43\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTechnology as a Driver for Innovation and Change 45\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Cultural Dimension of Change . . . and Its Management 47\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInterfacing with Your Organization’s Leadership and Management 50\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOvercoming Change Resistance and Managing Expectations 57\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTips and Tricks 67\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 3 Focus on Technology 77\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInterfacing Design Technology with Information Technology 79\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHardware\/Software License Selection for BIM 81\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSharing BIM via Networks 83\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBIM in the Cloud 85\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eExplaining Tool Ecologies 88\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInterfacing BIM 92\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFuture Developments 109\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 4 Building Up a BIM Support Infrastructure 113\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePropagating BIM 115\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eStarting with the End in Mind—Employer Information Requirements 117\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSetting the (BIM) Standards 121\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBIM Execution Plans 125\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe BIM Placemat 128\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe BIM Capability Statement 130\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBIM Library Management 133\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReaching Out 144\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 5 Day-to-Day BIM Management 147\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Broad Spectrum of BIM 149\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAdvancing BIM Strategically 151\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePlanning BIM on a Project 157\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFire-Fighting and Lending a Helping Hand 171\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 6 Excelling Your BIM Efforts 175\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn Search of BIM Excellence 177\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBecoming a BIM Expert 179\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInnovating with BIM and Educating Others 181\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBIM Research 185\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReaching Out and Getting Noticed! 188\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDistinguishing Your Service Offering via BIM 193\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEmbracing Lifecycle BIM 196\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWorking According to Local Guidelines and Standards 198\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMoving Forward (While Catching Up) 201\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEpilogue 207\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 209\u003c\/p\u003e \"This handbook provides an in-depth account of the breadth of activities that any BIM manager (or staff member actively engaged in the delivery of a project) might be required to undertake with appropriate theory and an emphasis on practical examples.\" (\u003ci\u003eNBS\u003c\/i\u003e, 2016) \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDominik Holzer\u003c\/b\u003e is a leading BIM expert, consulting with design and construction firms in Australia.
