Build•ing
The entire lifecycle of the building is considered (design/build/operations)

In•for•ma•tion
All information about the building and its lifecycle is included

Model•ing
Defining and simulating the building, its delivery, and operation
using integrated tools

BIM provides two major advantages over CAD:

    1.  BIM Models and manages not just graphics, but also information –
         information that allows the automatic generation of drawings and reports,
         design analysis, schedule simulation, facilities management, and more –
         ultimately enabling the building team to make better-informed decisions. 
  
    2.  BIM supports a managed environment so that people, tools, and tasks
         can effectively share this information throughout the building lifecycle, thus
         eliminating data redundancy, the need to re-enter data, data loss,
         miscommunication, and translation errors.
