An introduction to the three BIM Fields is provided below followed by Field Interactions and Field Overlaps. framework will assist in organising domain knowledge, elicit tacit expertise and facilitate the creation of new knowledge. The utility of such frameworks is ably articulated by Minsky (1975) who states: “Here is the essence of the theory: When one encounters a new situation (or makes a substantial change in one's view of the present problem) one selects from memory a structure called a Frame. This is a remembered framework to be adapted to fit reality by changing details as necessary. A frame is a data-structure for representing a stereotyped situation...Attached to each frame are several kinds of information. Some of this information is about how to use the frame. Some is about what one can expect to happen next. Some is about what to do if these expectations are not confirmed. We can think of a frame as a network of nodes and relations.” [60]

The BIM Framework identifies BIM maturity within organisations, projects and industry as a series of stages which stakeholders need to implement gradually and consecutively. Each of these stages is further subdivided into steps. What separates stages from steps is that stages are transformational or radical changes while steps are incremental [35,75]. BIM maturity includes TPP (technology, process
