Allplan trend report flags AI-BIM convergence as key construction industry shift

• Nemetschek published an Allplan trend report flagging accelerating convergence between AI and BIM across construction design and engineering workflows.
• Report argues AI value depends on structured project data, with BIM positioned as the core data framework for automation and decision-making.
• Key adoption hurdles cited include unstructured as-built information, manual data upkeep, interoperability gaps, and high barriers to entry.
• Three priorities highlighted: Any-to-BIM, semantic mapping, AI-supported generative design to convert fragmented project information into connected workflows.
• Report estimates construction drives about 33% of global CO₂ emissions, with built environment responsible for 50% of Europe’s material consumption.
