BIM was meant to transform construction. So why did it stall?
In this episode, Graham Kelly breaks down the real story behind BIM’s rollout. From poor client understanding to bloated consultancy models, learn what went wrong, what’s still worth salvaging, and how new tools like AI could finally unlock the potential BIM was meant to deliver.

We discuss:
• Why BIM’s promise didn’t match the outcome
• What’s useful about the BIM process today
• How international markets are doing it better
• What AI could fix — and what it can’t
• Why clients, not consultants, hold the key

If you’ve ever wondered why this “revolution” stalled, this is your inside look.
