Building Information Modeling Market Set for 15.1% CAGR Through 2032

The global BIM market will reach USD 24.8 billion by 2032, driven by urbanization, government mandates, and digital transformation in construction.

According to the latest industry report, the global building information modeling market, valued at USD 8.1 billion in 2024, is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.1% from 2025 to 2032, reaching USD 24.8 billion by 2032. The expansion is fueled by accelerating urbanization, government-led infrastructure initiatives, and the adoption of digital collaboration technologies across the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) sectors.

Urbanization and Infrastructure Investments Power BIM Market Growth

The surge in population and housing demand is driving governments and private entities to adopt BIM technologies for more efficient and sustainable construction processes. According to the United Nations, 68% of the world’s population will reside in urban areas by 2050, prompting unprecedented investments in residential, commercial, and civic infrastructure.

“BIM is no longer a choice but a necessity for modern construction,” said a Senior Research Analyst at P&S Intelligence. “As cities expand and sustainability standards evolve, BIM’s ability to unify design, planning, and execution phases makes it indispensable for both private developers and government agencies.”

BIM enables professionals to digitally design, visualize, and manage the entire lifecycle of a building — from design and construction to operation and maintenance — using intelligent 3D models and real-time data integration.

Key Market Trends and Growth Drivers

Cloud Computing and Collaborative Technologies

The rise of cloud-based BIM platforms is transforming construction collaboration. Tools like Autodesk BIM 360, Trimble Connect, and Bentley ProjectWise allow real-time data sharing and version control among globally distributed teams.

Cloud BIM eliminates traditional barriers such as software installation and synchronization delays, enabling faster project delivery, reduced rework, and enhanced accountability through version history and change tracking.

Governments such as Singapore are championing cloud-enabled BIM workflows, offering financial incentives under the BIM Fund to promote digital collaboration in large-scale projects.

Government Mandates and Regulatory Support

Mandatory BIM adoption for public infrastructure projects is a major catalyst worldwide.

  • In the UK, over 73% of construction firms now use BIM under government mandates.
  • Malaysia will enforce BIM for all public projects valued above RM10 million starting July 2025.
  • The EU BIM Task Group reports that 60% of European agencies have official BIM strategies, while countries like Brazil, Vietnam, and the UAE are implementing similar mandates for federal and municipal projects.

These policies are accelerating BIM’s standardization and private-sector adoption globally.
