Bim critical success factors in different Lifecycle Phases: A review exploring the technology, people, and process bim categories
Abstract
This study aims to draw the scenario of the BIM research field and investigates the relationship of BIM categories (technology, process, and people) with critical success factors, stratified in four life cycle phases (Design, Pre-Construction, Construction, and Operation). The research design is a literature review (SLR) performed through bibliometrics and content analysis. The findings showed the theme evolution based on two motor themes that stood out, artificial intelligence and construction supply chain; three niche themes emerged, data exchange, lean construction, and smart contracts. Finally, we verified the lack of studies focusing on enhancing BIM research related to the Process and People BIM categories once the Technology category has been more studied in the field.
