Benefits of using BIM for client requirements management (Baldauf et al., 2020)

Benefits	Description
Visualisation	Requirements must be well structured and easy to be visualised (Kiviniemi, 2005; Shen et al., 2013; Jallow et al., 2014)
Storage	Requirement information should be stored in a central and accessible repository (Christiansson et al., 2011; Shen et al., 2013; Jallow et al., 2014)
Connection	Requirements must be connected to spaces and components in product models (Kiviniemi, 2005; Koppinen et al., 2008; Christiansson et al., 2011; Shen et al., 2013)
Communication	Requirements must be available in a useable format to stakeholders (Kiviniemi, 2005; Christiansson et al., 2011; Shen et al., 2013; Jallow et al., 2014)
Assessment	BIM should assist stakeholders in assessing design, based on a set of current requirements (Eastman et al., 2009; Parsanezhad et al., 2016; Macit İlal and Günaydın, 2017)
Automation	BIM should support the automation of the design assessment process (Eastman et al., 2009; Jansson et al., 2013; Parsanezhad et al., 2016; Macit İlal and Günaydın, 2017)
Traceability	BIM should enable stakeholders to track requirements in order to improve change management and the verification of requirements consistency (Dick, 2004; Jallow et al., 2014)
Reuse of requirements	A broad repository of requirements is useful for creating requirement templates that allow a large set of requirements to be reused in different projects (Kiviniemi, 2005; Jallow et al., 2014)
Changes control	BIM should assist in monitoring and controlling changes and understanding how other requirements may be affected by a change (Shen et al., 2013; Jallow et al., 2014). It can also be used to communicate in real-time changes in requirements that need to be updated or refined frequently (Jallow et al., 2014; Baldauf et al., 2020)
User interface	BIM should facilitate the user interface and its widely accepted by project teams (Eastman et al., 2009)
Standardization	BIM can potentially support the standardization of a large number of criteria for assessing design proposals (Baldauf et al., 2020)
Comprehensiveness	BIM should support the modelling of different types of requirements and levels of abstraction (Baldauf et al., 2020)
