Demystifying BIM - Shoegnome

BIM is a collaborative process that relies heavily on communication and teamwork.  It also relies on leaving your ego at the door.  That being said, yes, I am about to link a couple articles from an ArchiCAD website.  Read the articles and remember BIM is a process not a software.  

Jared Banks over at ShoeGnome published a three part series that I found absolutely brilliant. The series focused on "demystifying" BIM.  My favorite part of the three series is the diagram in the third that looks like this:

How many of you think you are "doing BIM"?  What percentage of "BIM firms" are only implementing Lonely Little BIM?  Is social BIG BIM what we strive for?  

Jared's Three Posts...

• Why you failed at BIM (you were impatient) - looks at the struggles with BIM adoption. 
• There are Four BIM Flavors  - clarifies the term BIM by looking at two major factors: BIG/little and social/lonely.
• Primary Benefits of BIM - Dives deeper into the "flavors of BIM"...Or the quadrants of the diagram above.
