Abstract Building Information Modeling (BIM) has been acknowledged for promoting effectiveness and efficiency in project planning and management activities including design, bidding, and construction. Yet limited effort has been made to investigate the impacts of BIM implementation on corporate performance. Using the financial information of 314 Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) companies listed in the A-share market of China, this paper examines the economic benefits of BIM practice and assesses the influential mechanism of BIM implementation at the corporation level. The results reveal that BIM adoption contributes to better corporate profitability, especially in non-state-owned enterprises (non-SOEs). The positive impact of BIM implementation on profitability is achieved by the functions of promoting schedule efficiency and operation cost reduction. However, high initial BIM investment is still required in China's AEC companies at the current stage, and the effectiveness enhancement in corporation management has not been realized. By providing clear empirical evidence of the economic benefits of BIM adoption from a corporation perspective, this study might help improve top managers’ awareness, intention, or support of future BIM utilization in China's AEC companies.

China’s Belt and Road Initiative could be treated ambiguously. On the one hand, it is intended to transform the newly acquired economic potential of that country into its higher status in the world. China invites a lot of nations to build up gigantic transit corridors by joint efforts, and doing so it applies productively its capital and technologies. International transactions in RMB are also being expanded. But, on the other hand, the Belt and Road Initiative is also a necessity for China to cope with some evident problems of its current stage of development, such as industrial overcapacity, overdependence on imports of raw materials from a narrow circle of countries, and a subordinate status in global value chains. For Russia participation in the Belt and Road Initiative may be fruitful, since the very character of that project provides us with a space to manoeuvre. By now, Russian exports to China consist primarily of fuels and other commodities. More active industrial policy is needed to correct this situation . A flexible framework of the Belt and Road Initiative is more suitable for this objective to be achieved, rather than traditional forms of regional integration, such as a free trade zone.

The variants of the division of the life cycle of a construction object at the stages adopted in the territory of the Russian Federation, as well as in other countries are considered. Particular attention is paid to the exemplary work plan – "RIBA plan of work", used in England. A feature of this document is its applicability in the information modeling of construction projects (Building information Modeling – BIM). The article presents a structural and logical scheme of the life cycle of a building object and a list of works that are performed using information modeling technology at various stages of the life cycle of the building. The place of information models in the process of determining the service life of the building is shown. On the basis of the considered sources of information, promising directions for the development of the life cycle management system of the construction object (Life Cycle Management) and the development of the regulatory framework in order to improve the use of information modeling in construction are given.
