Abstract: Building Information Modelling (BIM) has been viewed as capable of addressing the problems of the construction industry. Hitherto, some firms have acknowledged BIM as a novel way to work and gone on to record success, others (which have not so done) have elevated such questions as: ‘How is BIM defined? Is it a tool or a process? Which breeds and sizes of organizations stand to value from BIM?’ These questions formulate the basis of this research. Most of the buildings projects suffered from cumulative total cost and duration in Joran, therefore, there is a dire need for implementing BIM to control the claims in buildings projects in Jordan. This research study was pragmatic to assess the impact of implementation of BIM in building projects and to clarify its effect on controlling the claims that can be avoided by using BIM. The proposed BIM adoption plan is developed to analyze in depth by strategic analysis tools. PESTEL analysis is apprehensive about six issues; political, economic, socio- cultural, environmental, technological, and legal. Complete SWOT analysis is used as planning tool to understand strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats, these strategic analysis tools aids to propose BIM adoption plan for building project describes by ADKAR change management model ; awareness ,desire ,knowledge ,ability and reinforcement. The outcomes of the research demonstrated that successful projects performed in the organizations that have used BIM is established on its adoption as a tool of technology, rather than as a process; a tool that transform the way, work in the construction industry is archetypally done. Additionally, the accomplishments recorded in the firms researched give credibility to project success consequent upon adopting BIM. Nonetheless, the conclusions of this research illustrate that the foundation of this success is leadership-driven innovation.
