Abstract

The work is focused on the issue of innovation in construction, which is associated with the gradual digitization of the entire sector to streamline work processes, save time and costs. The work addresses in more detail the issue of BIM implementation and the overall transformation of the construction industry based on the approved innovation strategy of the construction industry in the Czech Republic 2019-2030. From the point of view of introducing digitization into the construction industry, construction companies in the Czech Republic receive support mainly from subsidy programs, thanks to which construction companies can obtain a contribution for the purchase of new software and hardware solutions. The BIM method is analyzed in more detail from the point of view of implementation in a construction company and the implementation process itself is divided into several steps. Currently, the issue of BIM implementation is a very current topic, especially regarding the impending obligation to award above-limit public contracts in the Czech Republic for construction work, including contracts for related pre-project and project services in the above-limit regime using the BIM method.
