Introduction
Real estate in Australia is increasing day by day. Now, with the advent of ICT the real
estate can be largely benefitted. The realestate.com.au will be focused in this report. SWOT
analysis of the impact of ICT on the retail estate sector will be discussed in the report to find
the opportunities and the benefits as well as the risks associated within. The cybersecurity,
compliance and the business continuity has been discussed in the report as well.
Part A
The realestate.com.au has been focused in this report. Real Estate market works
almost similar to any other market and numerous management activities are involved and if
these processes are deployed significant profit can be gained. The ICT is a new initiative
which is going to change the real estate in mere future. With the advent of Big Data, the
business activities related to construction, design can be further furnished. The advanced IoT
sensors can be used further to collect and analyses data and can also be used to enhance
security. Building Information Modelling (BIM) can be utilised to monitor the lifecycle of a
construction building. BIM involves the complete monitoring from designing and
manufacturing, later the optimisation and examination of building manufacturing
components.
Internal Analysis
Strengths
BIM can save time and money for a particular project, so that time can be utilized into
undertaking other tasks. BIM provides the 3D design of the proposed project thus the model
can be better understood and for this reason, it can assist in the further construction of the
project (Laudon & Traver, 2013). BIM diminishes the errors incurred within the project
pretty early thus avoid the threats associated at the time of construction. BIM is utilised

widely in the construction industry ranging from mining, construction to facility
management.
Weakness
BIM does not cooperate among other occupations. It does not focus on providing
information rather it only focus on building. Various sectors of a company must work
collaboratively to effectively implement the BIM model (Laudon & Laudon, 2016). Though
BIM gives cost-effective solutions, initially a huge amount of money is required to
implement the software.
External Analysis
Opportunities
BIM assists and provides opportunities to stay connected with the BIM international
leaders in terms of education. BIM prescribes the whole construction model prior to the
construction starts (Anderson, 2014). BIM assists in learning new skills and methodologies in
the respective field.
Threats
BIM can heavily influence the traditional working procedure of the construction and
manufacturing industry sector and can even overtake the traditional industry as well (Khan et
al., 2014). The BIM construction companies are comparatively lesser in number; thus the
suppliers are quite less.
BIM short-term benefits
BIM details the construction process and also with that the required 3D model that
can ease the construction industry (Anderson, 2014). For this reason, the real estate sector
must adopt this technology, this can help them to build designs prior to construction
moreover it saves time.
