The study involved a quantitative survey with an online questionnaire, covering a broad sample of Slovenian construction companies. The research revealed that the most significant enabler of BIM imple- mentation in Slovenia is the awareness that BIM improves project documentation coordination and construction pro- cesses. It was also found that legislative support for BIM adoption in Slovenia is not crucial. Earlier adoption of relevant legislation would be helpful but is not essential for the BIM adoption. The most important factors for BIM adoption in Slovenia are those that address the improvement of productivity and efficiency. The study also confirmed that the high cost of BIM implementation is not an important barrier to BIM adoption in Slovenia. By using the exploratory analysis, we uncovered that the two most important enablers of BIM adoption in Slovenia are the awareness that BIM increases efficiency and that this can be achieved by empowering people to work in a BIM environment. At the same time, we must overcome the biggest obstacle, which is the misunderstanding of the BIM conceptTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaDruštvo Slovenska akademija za management
