Abstract

The aim of this paper is to study the potential of using the building information modelling (BIM) technology to assist the activities performed by the team that is responsible for supervising the execution of the federal public building’s contracts in Brazil. The paper describes, in short, the norms and the legislation of the external control body (Court of Auditors), as well as the federal norms and legislation, to understand what should be expected from the organizations’ activities, as well as their obligations. In addition, the most frequent irregularities in public con­struction were pointed out; the main contributions of BIM, regarding each irregularity, were also identified to avoid the problem. The innovative aspects of this study are the suggestions that were proposed for the use of BIM’s guidelines in public construction supervision in Brazil.
