This publication deals with the introduction of Building Information Modelling (BIM) into the building permit process of the City of Vienna. In the BRISE-Vienna project, the current building permit process was analysed in detail in a series of workshops with all key stakeholders and converted into a data-driven, BIM-based process. The results indicate that the developed process not only significantly increases the efficiency and transparency of building permit process, but also represents a decisive step towards integrating the authority into the BIM process of a building.
