This chapter describes the return of real experiences of three major engineering companies Systra, Egis and Setec as well as that of Colas Rail, which is the subject of this research project. It shows how to establish a framework for the integration of building information modeling (BIM) into the railway. The chapter also describes the contribution of BIM to the life cycle of a railway infrastructure before examining an introduction to BIM in a project. BIM adoption framework describes in detail six components of BIM adoption, including organizations, applications, tools, project teams, processes and business models. It is essential to set up an integration framework to stimulate the necessary changes in established work methods. BIM planning is based on a two‐level approach: development of a global map and a detailed process map. The chapter examines the findings of practical cases involving railway specialists who took the gamble of integrating BIM into the railway.
