Building Information Modelling (BIM) in New Zealand

Last updated: 7 November 2017

We’re supporting the development of Building Information Modelling (BIM), the digital representation of the complete physical and functional characteristics of a built asset. Through the work of the BIM Acceleration Committee, we’re learning how BIM can have a positive impact on the New Zealand building and construction sector.

What is BIM?

It involves building better processes using a model with real life attributes within a computer and sharing that information to optimise the design, construction and operation of that asset.

Used well, BIM can build better performance over the whole life of a built asset.

BIM Acceleration Committee

The BIM Acceleration Committee is a nationwide alliance of industry and government, established in February 2014 to coordinate efforts to increase the use of BIM in New Zealand. It is sponsored by the Productivity Partnership and BRANZ. The Committee meets every five weeks. Members are drawn from across the construction industry and give their time and expertise freely.

BIM Acceleration Committee Members on the BIMinNZ website has further information.
