BIM is a term invented by Autodesk, to give a generic name to the category of software like Revit. A //BIM// software talks about information inside the model of a building. That information need not be just the visual 3D of the building. It would be things like cost, properties of material, name of supplier and a zillion other stuff. BIM was coined only around 2007(?) or so. | BIM is a term invented by Autodesk, to give a generic name to the category of software like Revit.

Before adopting the term BIM, TAD was referred to object-oriented design software. And no TAD is not like Revit. Or Archicad or any of the IFC based BIM software. Since TAD can talk of all those non-visual properties also ; we still use the term BIM here. | Before adopting the term BIM, TAD was referred to object-oriented design software.
