By enabling the visualization of project elements and their data in 3D, it allows for a reduction in unbudgeted changes, increased collaboration and efficiency, and numerous other capabilities that are implemented to varying degrees throughout the industry. This study aims to evaluate perspectives on building information modeling from stakeholders in academia, architecture, engineering, construction, and operations, as well as the perspectives of software vendors, to elucidate a comprehensive current state of practice of building information modeling. Further, it seeks to make recommendations for building information modeling implementation at the Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority with the intent of increasing organizational efficiency and, in the future, leveraging asset data for facility management purposes.building information modeling, project element data in 3D, key stakeholder perspectives, efficiencyMasters Project
