DOCTORAL THESIS
The evolution of digital transformation brings with it various benefits, as information is generated through automated processes, where their respective data are in a digital format, which is not only understood and interpreted by the computer but is transformed by it into intelligent data when processed. In the context of digital transformation in the construction industry, BIM (Building Information Modeling) stands out as it presents itself to use digital tools in an integrated way in the management of information from the built environment. However, some challenges and barriers present themselves along the adoption of BIM, including issues related to information management and security. Given this, this thesis starts from the hypothesis that the adequate adoption of BIM by architecture firms depends on understanding of the challenges and strategies for information management and security and consequently for the protection of project information. In this sense, the main objective of the thesis is to propose a set of guidelines and a strategy for the adoption of BIM presenting the challenges of information management and security in the development of architecture projects. Through the documentary analysis of the contracts of companies/organizations that use BIM in the development of projects and act as contractors and/or providers of architecture services, it was possible to identify the main obstacles and risks for information management and security. As a result of this analysis and the compilation of information obtained from national and international standards, a strategy was developed to help identify risks, as well as a Construction Information Management and Security Model (BIMSM) and a Maturity Model for the adoption of BIMSM. The main conclusion of this thesis emphasizes the importance of understanding the aspects of information management and security, identifying imminent risks and establishing measures to face them so that information security really occurs. In addition, it is necessary that these aspects of GSI are constantly reviewed and planned, considering the evolution of digital transformation and that professionals must be in a continuous learning cycle, focusing not only on technology, but also on its impact on the project process and on the protection of project information.
