Why BIM mandates matter for manufacturers
BIM mandates directly influence how products are selected and specified in construction projects. As more countries require BIM in public tenders and large-scale developments, specifiers seek manufacturers that provide reliable, high-quality BIM content. Without it, manufacturers risk being left out of early design decisions, losing visibility in key projects, and falling behind competitors who meet digital requirements.
