MCAA Needs More Submissions for Industry-Wide BIM Survey – Help Shape the Future of Our Industry

December 9, 2024

On October 2, MCAA began a nationwide survey of select MCAA firms regarding current customs and best practices to account for and mitigate BIM-related risks. This topic is crucial and urgent for our industry, and MCAA is proud to take a leadership role to benefit our members and the industry as a whole. The survey was sent to randomly selected MCAA members by the researchers to increase statistical validity and reduce costs and time associated with sampling the entire MCAA membership. In order to gather more information, we are now sending the survey to our entire membership.

We are half-way home! In order to start the survey analysis on BIM risk strategies, the researchers we have retained need to receive a certain number of responses to validate the analysis. As of today, 95 MCAA members have completed the survey, which is deeply appreciated. Another 30 firms started the survey but have not yet finished the survey. Of course, a large number of MCAA firms have not started or completed the survey. We need as many of you as possible to respond to the survey so we can reach our response goal and ensure the statistical validity of the results.

It is critically important that we get as many firms as possible to respond to the survey. Start with the link below that will download a copy of the data entry sheet to make completing the survey as easy and quick as possible.

Once the survey is started it must be completed before exiting.
