The theme aimed at technological transformation in the construction industry currently encompasses different sectors, from the project development stage to the final building maintenance period. The Building Information Modelling (BIM) methodology is currently the main driver of incentive for the transformation of construction, contributing to integrating software and professionals in developing the various activities involved. Collaborative design in the field of health and safety in construction can be increased with the implementation of BIM, supported by good practice guides. Integrating Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) and big open BIM systems promotes an adequate synergy in a complementary performance, focused on the maintenance and simulation activity of the construction process, contributing positively to increasing the digital perspective in practice. Additionally, the connection of BIM and Virtual Reality (VR) technologies adds value to the development of the architectural and engineering project, promoting the optimization of the final construction product. The identification and management of conflicts between disciplines, inherent to the project, are currently supported by using BIM software with detailed diagnostic capabilities, namely, the VOSviewer software. In conclusion, the process of technological transformation is underway all over the world and in all activities, and should be known and learned by construction professionals, namely architects and engineers.
