Abstract: BIM exhibits strong potential to become a core technological advancement adopted in construction projects. However, the process of BIM implementation is being affected by various factors depending on specific circumstances. This study aims to identify global factors influencing BIM adoption in construction projects. By a comprehensive review of the previous literature, this study managed 39 critical factors impacting construction labor productivity, which were categorized as primary 5 groups, namely, human, management, technology, project, and external. A total of 159 valid samples were collected by respondents who completed a questionnaire survey according to their previous direct or indirect participation in the implementation of construction projects. These factors were ranked based on their Relative Important Index (RII) and descriptive statistics. The findings indicated that the most significant factors affecting BIM adoption in construction project implementation consist of (1) “perceived usefulness,” (2) “speed of BIM tools,” (3) “perceived benefits of BIM for organization,” (4) “technology quality,” and (5) “experience and skills”.
