4. Problem Statement Many owners and project teams are struggling with defining the appropriate level of modeling to perform on a project based on the current state of practice and future information needs.

5. Project Overview • Identify BIM methods and implementation strategies organized by project phase • Planning, Design, Construction, Operations • Develop implementation guidelines and best practice methods • Disseminate the results • BIM Execution Planning Guide • Interactive execution planning computer tool • Presentations at national conferences e.g. buildingSMART, AIA, AGC BIMForum, etc. • Articles in industry and academic publications

6. Project Goal • Develop a guide that will focus on the decisions required to implement Building Information Modeling throughout the stages of a building project: • Planning • Design • Construction • Operations

7. Project Deliverables • BIM Execution Planning Guide • Includes decision matrix and guidelines for BIM implementation at various project phases. • Posted and distributed through the buildingSMART Alliance. • BIM Execution Planning Application • Easy to use application for guiding a team through the decisions required for BIM implementation.

8. Methodology • Detailed Literature Review • Identify gaps in current research • Interviews • Identify methods, opportunities, and challenges encountered with the adoption of BIM. • Case studies • Evaluate BIM implementation on current projects • The Office of Physical Plant • Hershey Medical Center • Jacobs Facilities • PACE Members • Focus Groups • AE class – BIM Implementation

9. Milestone Schedule

10. Progress to Date • Literature review underway • Interview questions developed, and initial interviews started • Currently developing interviewee list • Wiki Setup - BIM Ex • Presentations • buildingSMART Alliance • PACE Conference • NIST • Graduate Course Setup for Fall 2008 • Advisory Board Formation • Currently 7 Members

11. Tasks this Summer • Perform Interviews • Planning (Chitwan) • Design (Nevena) • Construction (Craig) • Operation (Colleen) • Develop Decision Matrix Structure • Investigate Case Studies • Facilitate BIM Execution Plan development • Investigate previous projects • Prepare for fall semester BIM course
