Abstract

The sustainable growth of small and medium-sized enterprises in the construction industry depends on adopting modern technologies such as building information modelling (BIM). Improving BIM adoption in construction SMEs is crucial for the construction industry's overall development. Quantitative data was collected in a study involving 182 participants out of 200 distributed questionnaires. IBM SPSS 26 was used for descriptive and exploratory factor analysis, with the KMO and Bartlett’s tests to assess data reliability. The study identified four key factors from 19 measures to improve BIM adoption in Nigerian construction SMEs: increased knowledge transfer among stakeholders, guiding principles for BIM implementation, enhanced social networks among BIM stakeholders, and supportive policies and incentives. Recommendations include sustained knowledge transfer among construction professionals, government incentives for BIM projects, supportive policies, raising awareness to boost client demand, and training construction stakeholders through professional affiliations
