Building information modelling (BIM) can be viewed as a tool that can improve information sharing by allowing various parties to control and collaborate on their design, construction, and operation activities in a different way than the non-BIM approach. However, little is known about how BIM contract administration is currently practised by project stakeholders directly involved in the digital collaborative environment. Hence, this study delves into the extent to which these parties comply with BIM-based contractual requirements. Multiple case studies research design using the qualitative approach involving three BIM-based construction projects in Malaysia was conducted. Semi-structured interviews with project stakeholders and the BIM contractual guidelines referred to in the case studies were used to collect and analyse data. This study concluded by disclosing project stakeholders' contractual compliances during the design and construction phases of BIM deployment, revealing how BIM contract administration is currently practised by construction practitioners in Malaysia. © 2023, Jomard Publishing.
