OpenBIM-based Lifecycle Management in Infrastructure Delivery: Trends, Challenges, and Opportunities

OpenBIM has not yet been fully integrated into the lifecycle management processes of infrastructure projects. However, recent trends in digital transformation and open innovation, which are gaining momentum across various industries, have begun to influence the traditionally conservative construction sector. OpenBIM-based delivery promotes efficient collaboration among multiple stakeholders and the effective management and utilization of building information generated during project delivery. This research aims to increase the adoption rates of the OpenBIM methodology in infrastructure projects by examining current trends, identifying challenges, and exploring the opportunities presented by the OpenBIM system. To achieve these objectives, a comprehensive literature review was conducted, analyzing 25 articles sourced from Scopus and Google Scholar. The articles were selected based on specific inclusion and exclusion criteria, ensuring relevance and quality. The significance of this study lies in its potential to inform and guide the construction industry in adopting OpenBIM practices more widely. By providing a detailed analysis of the trends, challenges, and opportunities associated with OpenBIM, this research offers valuable insights that can facilitate the development of strategies to overcome existing barriers and enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of infrastructure delivery processes. The findings of this study provides a foundation for future developments in the application of OpenBIM in infrastructure delivery.
