BIM is one of the greatest technological innovations in the construction industry. However, due to various barriers such as cost and technological limitations, implementation is lagging in several countries, requiring strong government support for the successful deployment and development of BIM software. Authorities in most countries across the globe are promoting the use of BIM for all construction projects. Governments of various countries are coming up with initiatives and BIM implementation strategies to increase the adoption of BIM in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry. BIM and its implementation are becoming mandatory for all centrally procured private and public sector projects in several countries across the world.Furthermore, the use of BIM is altering the way buildings are designed and built. BIM is currently becoming the legal standard for most countries, and others are working toward using it. Such adoption of BIM and the growing number of government mandates are propelling the use of BIM software, which is driving the growth of the BIM software market.
The construction and engineering sectors have already been dealing with various challenges such as lack of capital and credit avenues leading to insolvencies, multiple frauds, and a regulatory burden under the Environment Laws and the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016. The COVID-19 pandemic has made this situation even worse. For example, governments have imposed partial and total lockdown. However, due to the restrictions put in place by the government, all the construction activities and most of the business activities across the country have been halted. Also, the lockdown has resulted in reverse migration and disruption of supply chains, which have caused delays and hindrances in meeting the obligations under the construction and engineering contracts. These are further expected to cause legal issues for the industry.
Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the ongoing effects of the pandemic had a negative and unclear impact on the world economy. Many of the downside risks mentioned in April World Economic Outlook have started to manifest. The world's financial conditions have become more rigid due to higher-than-expected inflation, particularly in the United States and major European nations. With COVID-19 outbreaks and lockdowns, China's recession has been greater than expected, and the conflict in Ukraine has had further detrimental effects.
The BIM software segmentation, based on software model, includes 3D, 4D, 5D, and others. In terms of BIM software model revenue, the 3D segment accounted for the largest market share in 2021. This is because the 3D representation model provides the key to supporting engineering and architecture components for decision making throughout the project life cycle. The 3D software model helps in the efficient and accurate capture of design in 3D, which accelerates its demand for building and construction projects.
