This study investigates the transformative impact of Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR), when integrated with Building Information Modeling (BIM), on the interpretation, communication, and enforcement of working drawings and specifications within the Nigerian construction industry. The research explores how immersive technologies enhance clarity, reduce misinterpretation, and improve collaboration among architects, engineers, contractors, and facility managers. A quantitative approach using survey method by administration of questionnaire the 600 professionals of which 539 were returned was the means of collecting the research data. The findings reveal that VR and AR create interactive, real-time visualizations of construction documents, allowing stakeholders to better understand design intent and technical specifications before implementation. Furthermore, the integration of these technologies strengthens facility management practices by enabling seamless data sharing through BIM, which improves asset tracking, maintenance planning, and resource optimization. However, the study also identifies key implementation challenges, including high adoption costs, inadequate workforce training, limited regulatory frameworks, and interoperability issues between existing systems and emerging technologies. These barriers currently limit widespread adoption within Nigeria’s construction sector. In order to address these issues, the study proposes strategic recommendations such as establishing pilot projects to demonstrate value, introducing capacity-building initiatives to upskill professionals, developing interoperable BIM standards, and updating regulatory policies to support innovation. Therefore, implementing these strategies, Nigeria’s construction industry can leverage immersive technologies to enhance project delivery, minimize errors, improve quality control, and foster sustainable facility management. Overall, this study underscores the need for a structured technological adoption framework to drive efficiency and competitiveness within the evolving built environment.
