Welcome to BIM Business Observations

Hi there,

Welcome to the very first edition of BIM Business Observations — a newsletter focused on exploring the business value of Building Information Management (BIM) and openBIM.

We’re a group of professionals with deep experience across digital construction, infrastructure, and asset management — each bringing our own take on how BIM translates into real-world results for companies and governments. Expect diverse voices, sharp insights, and practical reflections in every edition.

Let’s be clear from the start: BIM is not a technical topic — it’s a business strategy. Behind every model, every workflow, every standard, and every dataset lies a bigger question: how does this help a business make better decisions, reduce risk, create value, or stay competitive? If BIM isn’t serving your business goals, something’s off.

So that’s what this newsletter is about. No jargon. No hype. Just straight-up no nonsense observations about about real and potential BIM value — in operations, in decision-making, and more.

Whether you’re a leader, consultant, policymaker, or simply curious about how digital ways of working can improve business outcomes, you’re in the right place.

Thanks for joining us on this journey.
