There are no BIM guidelines, documentation protocols or modeling standards. There is an absence of documentation and modeling standards. There is informal or no quality control plans; neither for 3D models nor for documentation. There are no performance benchmarks for processes, products or services.
Basic BIM guidelines are available (e.g. training manual and BIM delivery standards). Modeling and documentation standards are well defined according to market-accepted standards. Quality targets and performance benchmarks are set.
Detailed BIM guidelines are available (training, standards, workflow, exceptions, naming...). Modeling, representation, quantification, specifications and analytical properties of 3D models are managed through detailed modeling standards and quality plans. Performance against benchmarks is tightly monitored and controlled.
BIM guidelines are integrated into overall policies and business strategies. BIM standards and performance benchmarks are incorporated into quality management and performance improvement systems.
BIM guidelines are continuously and proactively refined to reflect lessons learned and industry best practices. Quality improvement and adherence to regulations and codes are continuously aligned and refined. Benchmarks are repetitively revisited to insure highest possible quality in processes, products and services.

Diffusion of the models and collaborative work, from the estimate phase, is conceivable and occasional.
3D collaborative work for estimates, lasting relationships are in place.
There is an absence of defined processes; roles are ambiguous and team structures/dynamics are inconsistent. Performance is unpredictable and productivity depends on individual heroics. A mentality of "working" around the system‟ flourishes.
BIM roles are informally defined and teams are formed accordingly. Each BIM project is planned independently. BIM competency is identified and targeted; BIM heroism fades as competency increases but productivity is still unpredictable.
Cooperation within organizations increases as tools for cross-project communication are made available. Flow of information steadies; BIM roles are visible and targets are achieved more consistently.
BIM roles and competency targets are imbedded within the organization. Traditional teams are replaced by BIM oriented ones as new processes become part of organization’s / project team's culture. Productivity is now consistent and predictable. The focus is on the concept of business alliance.
BIM competency targets are continuously upgraded to match technological advances and align with organizational objectives. Human resource practices are proactively reviewed to insure intellectual capital matches process needs. The concept of alliance between companies is systematic. Lasting relationships are in place.
Dependence on pre-BIM contractual arrangements. BIM risks related to model-based collaboration (differ in each market) are not recognized or are ignored.
BIM requirements are recognized. “Statements defining the responsibility of each stakeholder regarding information management” are now available.
There is a mechanism to manage shared BIM intellectual property, confidentiality, liability and a system for BIM conflict resolution.
Organizations are aligned through trust and mutual dependency beyond contractual barriers.
Responsibilities, risks and rewards are continuously revisited and realigned to effort. Contractual model are modified to achieve best practices and highest value for all stakeholders.
Usage of software applications is unmonitored and unregulated. 3D Models are relied on to mainly generate accurate 2D representations/deliverables. Data usage, storage and exchanges are not defined within organizations or project teams. Exchanges suffer from a severe lack of interoperability.
Software usage/introduction is unified within an organization or project teams (multiple organizations). 3D Models are relied upon to generate 2D as well as 3D deliverables. Data usage, storage and exchange are well defined within organizations and project teams. Interoperable data exchanges are defined and prioritized.
Software selection and usage is controlled and managed according to defined deliverables. Models are the basis for 3D views, 2D representations, quantification, specification and analytical studies. Data usage, storage and exchanges are monitored and controlled. Data flow is documented and well-managed. Interoperable data exchanges are mandated and closely monitored.
Software selection and deployment follows strategic objectives, not just operational requirements. Modeling deliverables are well synchronized across projects and tightly integrated with business processes. Interoperable data usage, storage and exchange are regulated and performed as part of an overall organizational or project-team strategy.
Selection/use of software tools is continuously revisited to enhance productivity and align with strategic objectives. Modeling deliverables are cyclically being revised/ optimized to benefit from new software functionalities and available extensions. All matters related to interoperable data usage storage and exchange are documented, controlled, reflected upon and proactively enhanced.
BIM equipment is inadequate; specifications are too low or inconsistent across the organization. Equipment replacement or upgrades are treated as cost items and performed only when unavoidable.
Equipment specifications – suitable for the delivery of BIM products and services - are defined, budgeted-for and standardized across the organization. Hardware replacements and upgrades are well-defined cost items.
A strategy is in place to transparently document, manage and maintain BIM equipment. Investment in hardware is well-targeted to enhance staff mobility (where needed) and extend BIM productivity.
Equipment deployments are treated as BIM enablers. Investment in equipment is tightly integrated with financial plans, business strategies and performance objectives.
Existing equipment and innovative solutions are continuously tested, upgraded and deployed. BIM hardware become part of organization’s or project team’s competitive advantage.
