Résumé :

Collaboration plays a vital role in defining the efficiency of each construction project. The main stakeholders are the owners, designers, and contractors. Moreover, architecture, structure, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing are the five disciplines defined as essential in the building design process. However, there needs to be more research on the collaborative works of those disciplines in the Cambodian context. In this research, we interviewed sixteen participants: architects, structural engineers, and Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) specialists based on three components of collaboration: coordination, communication, and co-production. In addition, we also asked about the experiences of Building Information Modeling/Model/Management (BIM), which is introduced in many researches as the solution to information management problems between the different actors in the construction sector. The results put forward identify four workflow scenarios. Most of the interviewees are not yet familiar with BIM and are not applying it to their projects. They are most often involved in more traditional approaches to project delivery, even in large-scale projects. The study thus shows that the main factor that makes the workflow’s scenarios differ in the Cambodian construction sector is the degree and timing of collaboration that is built between the owner(s), designers, and contractor(s).
