We see that manufacturers are becoming more and more willing to create their own BIM objects because the market demands it. The Spanish public administration, encouraged by the European Union, has introduced BIM as a requirement in projects," says Marta. Spain is one of many countries that promote and mandate the use of BIM. Spain, Italy and Argentina have implemented an iterative BIM implementation roadmap, while Denmark, the UK and Brazil have made its use mandatory. However, the lack of a legal requirement does not mean that these countries are lagging behind the United States is a great example of this "Manufacturers are realizing that they need to have BIM facilities to participate in public projects and in the many other private projects where BIM is used.

Adaptation is ongoing. However, architects and engineers are expressing frustration that manufacturers cannot keep up with the delivery of BIM objects. Marta Gutiérrez comments "The main barrier for a manufacturer to start working with BIM is a lack of knowledge. Of course, the situation is different if the manufacturer has its own BIM experts on site. In this case, decisions about the development of digital objects are made much faster because they know the methodology and its benefits.



D mesh pipes, BIM objects What should a manufacturer provide to develop BIM objects? Simply put BIM objects are information rich digital replicas of your products. But what information is needed to create BIM objects? "To develop BIM files, we need product catalog cards, D or D reference files, as well as product materials and textures," says Marta Gutiérrez and adds "Ideally, the manufacturer's project manager should have a technical profile or a good understanding of the product to make the process even smoother especially for complex products such as electronics.
