Determine the types of projects the company primarily handles, as this will influence the specific BIM software functionalities required.

Research and Evaluate BIM Software Options:

Conduct in-depth research on a BIM software application available that you think will fit the company needs, considering factors such as:

Ease of use and learning curve.

Compatibility with existing software and systems.

Integration with project management tools.

Scalability to accommodate future growth.

User reviews and industry recommendations.
