Building Information Modelling (BIM) as an advanced digital technology in construction has significantly revolutionized and improved various aspects of project management. The potential of BIM to improve construction project management, engineering efficiency, reduce costs, and enhance the quality of construction projects has been widely recognized however, its application in China's construction industry has progressed relatively slow. Within the specific framework of China's construction industry, the adoption of BIM encounters unique obstacles, which constitute the central issue that this research aims to tackle. This paper reports a progress to date of a Ph.D. research aimed at improving BIM adoption in China's construction industry. Both quantitative and qualitative data collection methods will be used to achieve research objectives. Analysis will cover on the impact of technological, legislative, educational, and cultural factors on BIM adoption and further exploration will also be made on innovative policies and practices to promote the widespread application and effective utilization of BIM in China. The research findings are expected to offer crucial insights on overcoming obstacles and improving BIM adoptions in China. Furthermore, findings could contribute to the current academic knowledge by offering a context-specific examination of BIM in China, a subject that has been minimally explored.
