SatisfyingOwner demands is at the heart of the both the use of BIM and IPD process.Architects, Engineers and Constructors are responding to Owners’ demands by adopting newprocesses, including collaborative partnerships, and utilizing new technologies. New tools andtechnologies are key enablers of the integration of design and construction.13 These include: • BIM design tools to provide platforms for integrated processes built on coordinated reliable information and resulting in enhanced coordination, fewer RFIs and change orders, and less rework; • 3D and 4D visualization for enhancing scope definition, stakeholder engagement, and decision making
