Product Review

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the process of generating and managing a Building Information Model through the use of three-dimensional, intelligent design information. BIM is driving the commercial construction industry away
from a 2D-based process toward a model-based process that encourages across the-board collaboration from owners, designers, general contractors and all the specialty trades with the goal of delivering safer, more productive projects on time and within budget with a final building that offers a sustainable environment for its
users.
The Associated General Contractors (AGC) of America’s 30,000 members nationwide are dedicated to advancing the ever-changing agenda of commercial construction contractors, improving jobsite safety, expanding the use of cuttingedge
technologies and techniques and strengthening the dialogue between contractors and owners. All these goals are furthered by AGC’s BIM Education Program (BIM EP) and the corresponding Certificate of Management — Building
Information Modeling (CM-BIM) credential.
