description Human beings exist in a world with modern technology and human beings are the ones who utilize such inventions to support mankind. Information technology has improved the efficiency of virtually every company in the world, especially the construction sector. Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Prefabricated Prefinished Volumetric Construction (PPVC) are the innovative approaches that can help construction industry in many ways. But the question is how the collaboration of BIM and PPVC could be proving helpful for us? What are the potential barriers that need to be considered? It can be useful for construction industry in many aspects like can decrease labor need and cost by providing greater access to information, enabling timely and informed decision making, among other things. The urgent need for industry upgrading and the emergence of information technology provide a favourable opportunity for implementing BIM in prefabricated construction. Most of the previous research has been accomplished on BIM study on prefabricates such as IPS. The innovation of current research is being conducted on BIM in PPVC. The scope of this study is revolving around idea of concrete PPVC. The findings of this study can thus act as a practical reference for future research attempting to provide technological and managerial solutions to improve BIM implementation in Malaysia’s prefabricated construction.
