    <jats:abstract>
     <jats:p>The Construction sector in Syria is adversely far beyond other industries in terms of economic growth rate and technological advancements, in what makes AEC projects less committed to schedule, cost, and quality. Yet, there aren’t binding criteria that stakeholders, such as contractors, and design and implementation firms might adhere to. This study explores the performance of implementing construction projects to establish a methodology to enhance schedule and cost performance through the use of Earned Value Management System (EVMS) and Building Information Modelling (BIM). This research will be key in determining key mechanisms and approaches in regards to AEC project management to improve project performance and achieve optimal efficiency regarding cost, schedule, and scope of the projects. A case study will be conducted through stages, starting with redoing the project using BIM; then using EVMS to track the schedule of the project; and finally ending with a comparison between the traditional methodology. The study suggests new methodology to the AEC projects in Syria to enhance cost and schedule performance, in addition to quantity surveying, using the EVMS and BIM. This study will constitute a cornerstone for researchers to enhance construction project management practices by using EVMS and BIM, for it is a new field of research in Syria that will help decision makers in the AEC industry to adopt a new methodology that improves upon the construction sector situation. Finally, this study will pave the way to contribute in the establishment of BIM standards and EVMS guidelines.</jats:p>
