The study BIM and Public Procurement: State of Play, Impacts and Policy Recommendations for the Revision of the Public Procurement Directives assesses the use of BIM across Europe and examines its impacts on public procurement and project delivery. The report identifies BIM as an important enabler of digital transformation in the construction sector, supporting structured information management throughout the lifecycle of buildings and infrastructure assets. BIM's contribution to broader European policy objectives, including the European Green Deal, the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD), the revised Construction Products Regulation (CPR) and the wider Digital Built Environment agenda reaffirm that by enabling more effective management of building information from design through operation, BIM can support sustainability, resource efficiency and lifecycle performance objectives across the built environment.

Looking ahead, the report finds that mandatory BIM requirements in public procurement can be justified on efficiency, competitiveness and policy-alignment grounds, aiming to encourage wider BIM adoption to support a more data-driven and performance-based approach to public investment in the construction sector.
