The Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR 4.0) has recently compelled the construction sector to employ Building Information Modelling (BIM) as a central repository for digital project information. BIM has thus become a major influence in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction industries (AEC). Although BIM improves design quality by minimising disputes and decreasing rework, there is limited study on applying it throughout a project for quality control and effective information use. Thus, this paper explores and discusses the quality efficiency of BIM-based construction projects. There were 206 questionnaires distributed to government agencies/clients, consultants, and contractors. Quantitative data analysis was conducted using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). Consequently, twenty-seven (27) attributes of quality efficiency of BIM-based construction projects were deemed the determining factor by the three research groups (Government, consultant, and contractor). The research result was to help BIM-based construction project players, especially government agencies/clients, contractors, and consultants, by giving a roadmap to be BIM-compliant and seeing the adoption process to attain BIM level 3 (full integration) for the Malaysian construction sector.
