Is the manufacturing sector still scared of BIM?

Some manufacturers may still be wary of BIM. Should  companies embrace it or risk being left behind? asks Nick Johns, Head of Digital Manufacturing for Graitec. I wouldn’t say that manufacturers are necessarily scared of BIM and I do think most of them are engaged but perhaps concerned, as BIM is still in a maturing landscape within a maturing market. However, I do believe it’s time for manufacturers to start to take advantage of the well-advertised benefits that are meant to come with the digital agenda.
