What are the BIM Awards?
Since 2005, the AIA Technology in Architectural Practice (TAP) Knowledge Community has spearheaded an effort to highlight award winning “best of breed” case studies from the profession in the harnessing of Building Information Model (BIM) technology and processes to further design, construction and project excellence.

Awards Reception
The AIA TAP BIM Awards reception is an annual celebration of the BIM Awards program and its current recipients. The evening event enables AIA members to network with peers while celebrating the best in BIM-facilitated design.
