A Systematic Literature Review of Building Information Modelling (BIM) and Offsite Construction (OSC) Integration: Emerging Technologies and Future Trends

This research conducts a systematic literature review of 189 peer-reviewed articles to explore integrating building information modelling (BIM) and offsite construction (OSC). It aims to identify emerging trends, methodologies, and technologies in BIM-OSC integration, focusing on construction stages, stakeholder roles, and BIM dimensions. The research highlights a growing interest in BIM-OSC, particularly in early construction stages, and emphasises 21 collaborative approaches and advanced technologies like artificial intelligence (AI), digital twins, the internet of things (IoT), blockchain, and 3D printing for sustainable development. Nine challenges identified include emerging technologies integration, standardised protocols, improved integration and interoperability of solutions, data management, costs, stakeholders, sustainability, geographical perspectives, and skills considerations. The findings offer a comprehensive roadmap for BIM-OSC implementation, contributing to construction innovation discourse and suggesting future research directions. This research advocates for the robust adoption of BIM and OSC to foster innovation and sustainability in the construction industry.
