Repost: New McGraw Hill BIM Report - THE BUSINESS VALUE OF BIM (Source Link)  

Thanks to Revit3D.com for pointing out the great BIM Market Report.  Use the Trackback Link to go to the orginal location to download the report (or use the link below), or you can download a copy from the attachments section of this post.

 

You can register for the free report here

Here's their main page http://bim.construction.com 


Key Findings

  • Architects are perceived to reap the highest value from BIM.
  • Engineers see the most value in marketing BIM services and the
  • productivity gains created by BIM.
  • Civil engineers lag behind structural and MEP engineers in adoption.
  • Contractors reap the highest value from benefits related to costs.
  • MEP contractors rank among the top BIM adopters.
  • Owners see BIM as a valuable communication tool.


Key Findings

  • Half of the industry has adopted BIM, a 75%increase from two years ago.
  • BIM use by contractors has quadrupled in the last two years.
  • The rate at which BIM users utilize it on projects will double in two years.
  • The U.S.West Coast has the highest concentration of BIM users.
  • Non-users are open to adopting BIM in the future.
  • Greatest challenges for non-users: 1) not enough time to evaluate BIM,
  • 2) software/hardware upgrades, 3) functionality doesn’t apply well to their practice


I don't want to spoil the ending of how this page turner ends, but let's just say that if you haven't started your BIM adoption plan, you're just about too late to get into the game.  Hurry before the recession ends
