Anotace: The objective of the undertaken study is to assess the application of

Building Information Modeling (BIM) and evaluate the quality of
information on construction projects. The paper also focuses on
examining the design information quality on construction projects
by applying BIM based on perceived variables, for instance,
improve workflow, improve collaboration, design visualization,
lower cost, environmental impact analysis, and variations. The first
objective was to evaluate the impact of building information
modeling on perceived variables such as improve workflow,
improve collaboration, design visualization, lower cost,
environmental impact analysis, and variations. We also evaluated
the impact of these six constitutes of BIM, for instance, improve
workflow, improve collaboration, design visualization, lower cost,
environmental impact analysis, and variations on reducing design
information problem. Finally, we have evaluated the mediating
impact of improve workflow, improve collaboration, design
visualization, lower cost, environmental impact analysis, and
variations between building information modeling and reducing
design information problems. In the last, we also examined the
impact of BIM on reducing design information problems. In this
context, the closed-ended five-point Likert scale adapted
questionnaire was distributed among construction professionals, and
data were analyzed through structural equation modeling and
multivariate techniques using statistical software. The findings
demonstrated that BIM has a significant & positive impact on its six
constitutes. Additionally, we examined these constitutes such as
improve workflow, improve collaboration, design visualization,
lower cost, environmental impact analysis, and variations have a
significant impact on reducing design information problems. The
results also significantly contributed to the fact that BIM has a
significant impact on reducing design information problems,
ultimately playing a pivotal role in assessing design information
quality on projects.
