Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a process which simulates a construction project in a digital model allowing for more effective method of designing creating and maintaining assets during projects lifecycle. Its importance in the performance improvement has led to many countries especially in the global North massively investing in it to solve the long-study performance issues that has plagued the construction industry for generations. However, a major barrier has been a lack of BIM experts to implement BIM on projects in the global North. The Architecture Engineering and Construction (AEC) businesses are now looking outwards to other countries to provide BIM services through what is commonly known as BIM outsourcing. Yet, while other countries such as India and China have always been key players in the BIM outsourcing market, it is not yet clear how this is playing out in Africa especially Cameroon. This study explored the potential of outsourcing of BIM services from Cameroon, a central African country to the global North. A questionnaire was distributed to a target population of 110 and 37 provided complete response, representing a response rate of 33.6%. The findings revealed that lack of knowledge where to find BIM outsourcing jobs, lack of major BIM agents to link us with major global construction companies out of Cameroon, lack of knowledge where to find BIM outsourcing jobs were major barriers hindering BIM outsourcing services in Cameroon. In addition, the study revealed that strategies such as the provision of BIM training to youths, development of policies to regulate BIM outsourcing activities, embedding BIM into degree programmes and set-up vocational BIM training centres will need to be implemented in order to promote the uptake of BIM outsourcing services in Cameroon.
