Building Information Modelling (BIM) has numerous benefits and applications in Facilities Management (FM) also, every organisation is different, necessitating a specific approach to BIM implementation. In both academia and industry, BIM has been recognised as a new approach that can improve corporate competitiveness and quality, but its implementation has been limited. BIM for Facility Management has gotten a lot of attention in the literature and in practise, and it's very popular in the FM industry, but it's still a long way from being fully implemented. Facility managers are unsure whether BIM will help them speed up the process or if it is a cost-effective solution, or what skills they will need. Thus, the aim of this research is to explore and analyse the implementation of BIM towards enhancing facilities management industry in Sarawak.

This research findings will give awareness to the Facility Manager about the benefits of using BIM in the industry for enhancing facility management performance. The outcomes from this research will be beneficial for the Facility managers, researchers, institution, and community for the advancement of knowledge and future practice where they will realize the importance of BIM in the facilities management industry.
