Abstract

This business case sets out the rationale for adopting Information Management and Building Information Modelling (IM/BIM) within the private sector, aligned with ISO 19650. It explains how a structured, standards-based approach to managing information across the project lifecycle can reduce risk, improve coordination, and protect commercial margins by minimising rework, late changes, and delays. The document highlights that early and targeted investment in people, processes, and digital tools delivers the greatest return, supporting faster approvals, clearer decision-making, more competitive bids, and consistent project delivery. Overall, the business case positions IM/BIM as a practical enabler of productivity, resilience, and long-term competitiveness for private organisations operating in an increasingly digital and standards-driven market.
