Overview

About this programme

This 5-day course provides a practical and strategic understanding of how Building Information Modeling (BIM) enhances Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) for more collaborative, efficient, and risk-shared construction projects. The course explores how BIM facilitates transparent communication, real-time data sharing, team alignment, and joint decision-making across stakeholders. Participants will gain insights into legal considerations, project workflows, and real-world applications of IPD with BIM to streamline delivery and improve outcomes across design, construction, and operation phases.
