The Ministry of Environment of the Republic of Lithuania ( ) which is responsible for the formation of policy in construction sector progress, organization, coordination and controlling of its implementation in Lithuania has moved forward quite a lot in few years talking about digitalisation of Lithuanian construction sector. There is a need to create state-level digitalisation measures, ensure the leadership of public sector, strengthen the capacities and capabilities of public and private sector. The Ministry has launched an informational website www.statyba40.lt (www.construction40.lt) for all initiatives regarding the digitalisation of Lithuanian construction sector. BIM is one of the key elements of Statyba 4.0. The Lithuanian term Statyba 4.0 (in English Construction 4.0) refers to the digitalisation of the construction sector. At the moment The Ministry of Environment of the Republic of Lithuania with partners Vilnius Gediminas Technical University and Kaunas University of Technology (two leading technical universities in Lithuania), State Enterprise Lithuanian Road Administration, State Enterprise Turto bankas and Public Body Construction Sector Development Agency is implementing project “Creation of the measures to increase efficiency of the life cycle processes of public sector construction works using Building Information Modelling (BIM)”. This project is also known as BIM-LT project . BIM-LT project has begun in early 2019 and the end date is 2023. The activities of BIM-LT project include preparation of free state-level digitalisation measures: BIM normative documents, Lithuanian national construction information classification system (also known as NSIK), BIM methodological documents for public procurement, the methodology for evaluation and monitoring of BIM benefits and training related to the application of the BIM normative documents, NSIK, BIM methodological documents for public procurement, the methodology for evaluation and monitoring of BIM benefits. BIM-LT project has also a Consultative Committee which is represented by public sector clients and design and construction firms. There are also consultations with public included in the activities of BIM-LT project (More information about BIM-LT project following the link: )

The field of construction is one of the most important industries for most countries, which affects the efficiency of the entire management system, including the state of the environment. The importance of this industry for the economy of any country can be explained by the fact that capital construction creates a large number of jobs and is the main consumer of intermediate products and related services. Due to its economic importance, the results of the construction sector can significantly affect the development of the economy as a whole. The economic benefit of the development of this industry is the multiplier effect of funds invested in construction and interconnected processes. After all, with the development of the construction industry are developing: production of building materials and equipment for their manufacture, engineering, metallurgy and metalworking, petrochemistry, glass production, woodworking and porcelain industry, transport, energy and more. Also, construction creates the basis for the development of small and medium-sized businesses, thus creating new jobs. Thus, the growth of the construction industry contributes to the strengthening of the country’s economy and solves many social problems. The construction industry is one of the key sectors of any economy. For example, in the EU its share is 9% of GDP, while in Ukraine this value is at 3.97% of GDP, although with a gradual increase in recent years. It should be noted that construction consists of three main sectors: residential, non-residential (commercial and social) and infrastructure. In Europe, in 2016, 78% of all construction was residential and non-residential, and the remaining 22% were engineering structures. This report talks through the current state of the construction industry in Ukraine and then goes on to illustrate and explain the problem that needs to be solved. The main conclusion of the document comes in the sections around ways to implement BIM for success and the expected results which this can deliver.
