Building information modelling (BIM) is a digital representation of physical and functional characteristics of a facility. A BIM is a shared knowledge resource for information about a facility forming a reliable basis for decisions during its life-cycle; defined as existing from earliest conception to demolition.
BIM benefits:
Faster drafting without loss of cost and quality
High level of customization and flexibility
Optimization of schedule and cost
Seamless coordination and collaboration
Conflict detection and risk mitigation
Easy maintenance of building life cycle
Here is the nice info-graphic which compares BIM based process to the 2D drawings based process:
