The production processes, from conceptual design to execution, are strictly linked to the high productivity and technological innovation applied to buildings. Thus, project companies need to constantly renew their processes in order to maximize their competitive position and achieve better results. Experiences in several countries demonstrate the trend towards adoption of Building Information Modeling (BIM), which has the capacity to store information needed throughout the life cycle of buildings. In view of the above, the work aimed to analyze, through case studies, the implementation of BIM and its use on design procedures in architectural offices in Maceió-AL. The methodological procedures adopted were based on qualitative exploratory research. A multiple case study was carried out in three architecture offices in Maceió. As a parameter for the analysis of the selected offices, a nationally prominent architecture office in the use of BIM was taken as reference. The study was based on document analysis, structured interviews, semi-structured interviews and informal conversations. Then, the data collected in the case studies were organized, evaluated and compared with the reference study and the concepts found from the literature review. The results showed that after the implementation of BIM, there was an increase in productivity, reduction of design errors and greater control of project information in the offices analyzed in Maceió. However, these were still classified in the early stages of BIM, not exploiting the full potential of the methodology. It was noted that only one office is capable of using BIM at the most advanced level. It is concluded that there is a need for advances in the professional environment of Maceió regarding the implementation and use of BIM in architecture offices, both in the use of technological resources that enhance collaborative processes among all agents involved in construction, in the practices and policies that regulate the development of projects in BIM.
