A special five day event on "5D BIM" was held in Melbourne Australia, involving presenters and students from the University of Melbourne, the National University of Singapore, and AEC industry. The event explored integration of building information modelling (BIM) and cost estimating (5D) while discussing how BIM can be helpful in estimating, scheduling and costing. It was discussed that with this integration, a change in the design can immediately show impact on program and budget. It was also discussed that it can provide the project teams with cash flow forecasts, detailed risk analyses, some accurate cash flow forecasts and even sometimes resource forecasts.
