The BIM Initiative was started at the STA by enthusiastic project managers in 2010. These project
managers were inspired by the buzz around BIM and took the initiative to try BIM to various degrees in their
construction projects. The project managers created what they called a BIM Network with the purpose of
sharing experiences and develop their BIM skills. The BIM Network was an informal forum where project
managers could exchange experiences. Project managers of some of the largest infrastructure projects in
Sweden were involved in this network. At this time, in 2010, the STA went through a major reorganization.
The STA was established in 2010 and was a merger of two prior organizations: the Swedish Road
Administration and the Swedish Railway Administration. According to a project manager partaking in the
BIM Network, the leadership was unclear during this reorganization. This situation provided project
managers with the possibility to take action and start BIM implementation initiatives.

The implementation of BIM by the STA Directur on
the work carried out by the STA raises procons
The story of BIM implementation at STA is a story of how an informal network of early BIM adopters
and other BIM enthusiasts translate their understanding of the technology to create an Actor-
Network around BIM. It was the project managers who tried BIM first and started the BIM initiative,
thereby initiating the BIM translation. As the change process continued, this translation has been
developed in various ways. The General Director for the STA made the formal decision to implement
BIM in the whole organization; this decision was however heavily influenced by the project
managers in the BIM initiative.
