Abstract
The level of support provided by Egyptian Architecture, Engineering and
Construction (AEC) stakeholders represented in both public and private
sector regarding Building Information Modeling (BIM) diffusion, adoption
and implementation on country scale has its peculiarities. Nowadays, BIM
has become a generally accepted technology and process used among AEC
Industry Stakeholders, However, Egypt is not a principal country in BIM
adoption. Moreover, governmental countrywide technical reports regarding
status of BIM use and the role of stakeholder in BIM adoption are absent.
Thus, this research aims to present a developed general guideline for
building information modeling implementation, and proposed responsibility
matrix model (RACI matrix) for BIM diffusion from the prospective of the
Egyptian AEC industry stakeholders. The exploration is done mainly
through, the literature review, where deficiencies in AEC industry is listed,
the role of BIM in overcoming the construction industry problems, BIM
systems in various selected countries were reviewed to highlight the
successful practices in this field. In addition to examine the current status of
BIM in Egyptian AEC online surveys were sent out to 250 with 62%
response rate in addition to phone call interviews with selected sample for
further data clarification and collection. Findings of this research have
clearly identified the classification of the key stakeholders in BIM adoption,
general guidelines for the roles of both public and private sector in
promoting BIM implementation in AEC industry with particular focus on the
role of the Governmental sector, finally generated proposed BIM RACI
matrix model for BIM implementation in AEC industry. Furthermore, the
current situation of BIM implementation in Egyptian AEC industry from the
major stakeholders’ perspective have been explained. Value of this thesis
relay on introducing general recommendations for BIM adoption in Egyptian
AEC industry based on the successful practices case studies analysis and the
contextual situation of BIM adaption in Egyptian AEC industry.
