Abstract

This research investigates the transformative impact of Building Information Modeling (BIM) on construction project management, highlighting its potential to enhance traditional processes through digital innovation.As the construction industry evolves amidst global economic integration and heightened competition, the demand for quality, efficiency, and sustainability escalates, presenting new challenges for project managers.Traditional management practices, while foundational, lack the dynamism and integrative capabilities offered by BIM technology.BIM emerges as a revolutionary paradigm, facilitating a shared digital environment that promotes precision, efficiency, and improved collaboration across the project lifecycle.By integrating BIM with artificial intelligence (AI), this study explores novel synergies that further refine project management methodologies, addressing complex challenges in the design, execution, and maintenance phases.The research employs a comprehensive review of existing literature, case studies, and practical applications to assess the effectiveness of BIM in various project management contexts.The findings reveal that while BIM significantly enhances project outcomes, its adoption faces technological, organizational, and cultural barriers.This necessitates a comprehensive strategy encompassing innovation, education, and policy reform to unlock its full potential.The study underscores the critical role of BIM in driving the future of construction project management, advocating for a collaborative effort among industry stakeholders to foster a conducive environment for BIM adoption and leverage its benefits for sustainable development in the construction sector.
