dc.description.abstractPrevious studies have shown that very little research have been on the implementation of BIM in each of the application areas of Facilities Management (FM). These pose challenges for the effective management of facilities. This study therefore evaluated the factors influencing the adoption of BIM for FM in Abuja, Nigeria with a view to improving the adoption of BIM in FM. In view of this, a quantitative research approach was employed for the study. Data were collected from 356 randomly selected construction professionals in Abuja with the use of structured questionnaire. The data collected were analysed with the use of frequency count, percentage and Mean Item Score (MIS). Results of data analysis revealed that the factors influencing the adoption of BIM for FM are important (Group MIS = 3.87); the drivers to the implementation of BIM for FM are important (Group MIS = 3.99); the level of BIM awareness in all the FM application areas in Abuja is high (Group MIS = 3.72); the level of BIM implementation in the FM application areas is high (Group MIS = 3.52) but requires more improvement; and the most effective measures for enhancing the adoption of BIM for FM are Incorporation of BIM to academic curriculum and Embarking on intensive awareness of BIM by software vendors and training institutes (MIS = 4.22 each). It was concluded that the factors influencing the adoption of BIM for FM in Abuja are important and requires to be put into consideration for the successful management of facilities. It was thus recommended that stakeholders should work collaboratively to set up a mechanism for the effective implementation of the measures for enhancing the adoption of BIM for FM. This will in turn enhance the level of adoption of BIM for FM and hence the successful management of facilities.en_US
