BIM, target-costing, cost modelAbstract
Target costing (TC) is an approach that has its origins in the manufacturing
industry that aims to provide cost savings without reducing the quality and value of the
product to the customer’s eyes and has been used in the construction industry in various
countries. One aspect relevant to its implementation in construction industry is the quality of
information and interaction of the teams in the early stages of a project. The use of Building
Information Modeling (BIM) allows the extraction of information quickly and accurately at
the beginning of the project design, for instance, quantities and costs estimation. The paper
aims to describe the synergy between TC and BIM, pointing out the positive aspects offered
by this union. This is a secondary study using literature review of primary studies on TC and
BIM to synthesize the results and to explore a possible synergy integrating both approaches.
The results show the positive aspects of joint use. The findings point to several benefits and
strategies for this synergy to occur, such as automatic quantification, stimulating creativity,
assessment of cost alternatives and the integration of the teams in new forms of employment.
