A survey by Satellier Inc., the global leader in workshare solutions and pioneer in Building Information Modeling services (BIM) for the architecture, engineering, construction and building owner (AECO) industry results from uncovered emerging trends in Indian real estate development. The survey was conducted jointly with Infor-Media India, organizer of the recent Real Estate India 2008 International Conference, in New Delhi. The online survey polled developers, investors, construction personnel, architecture and engineering firms. Satellier CEO Michael Jansen hosted a panel at this conference to discuss the characteristics of the gap and practical remedies. The panel, comprised of leading figures from Jones Lang LaSalle Meghraj, Hines, Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, and Geodesic Techniques, discussed how design-to-construction in India works today, how they are addressing the gap, and how technology, namely BIM, can improve project delivery in India.
The survey revealed that 93% of eth respondents believe that there is a significant gap between international design practices and onshore construction realities for large-scale developments in India, characterized by the many challenges facing the development community today: unprecedented demand for more and better building, shortage of local architects with international experience, project overruns, reported to be in excess of 62% in the government sector (insufficient number of graduates to fill the growing need for skilled talent, consultant performance issues, and slow adoption of Building Information Modeling (BIM), among other pressures. Moreover, 93% of respondents think that bridging this gap will lead to more successful projects. Significantly, 87% believe that BIM can be a key project delivery system for saving time and money during construction, and 83% believe that the appointment of a design coordinator for large-scale projects is one of the solutions that can bridge this gap.
