2.1 What is BIM?
2.2 The background and history of BIM
2.3 Why does BIM matter?
2.4 What is FIM?
2.5 Is the construction industry BIM/FIM ready?
2.5.1 The market is not ready and BIM is still in the innovation stage, and it is therefore too early to get involved with BIM
2.5.2 Training costs are high, the education requirements are not known and the learning curve is steep
2.5.3 An investment in new technology, hardware and software is needed, and the potential cost of that investment is not justified by the potential savings that may be gained at this stage
2.6 What will BIM do in the future?
2.7 To BIM or not to BIM?
