This study explores the potential of Blockchain (BC)-enabled Digital Twins (DT) using qualitative semi-structured interviews to investigate the perception of stakeholders in the Architectural, Engineering, Construction and Facility Management (AEC-FM) industry on the relevance of BC-enabled DTs in augmenting stakeholder collaboration. The findings revealed that most interviewees perceived the potential of a BC-enabled DT in fostering stakeholder collaboration, leading to enhanced project delivery. Some participants viewed affordability drivers, whilst some highlighted the desire to fulfil client demands as influencing drivers for BC-enabled DT implementation in the AEC-FM industry. The study’s empirical findings align with evidence from other industrial sectors, proving that BC can ensure data integrity in a decentralised peer-to-peer framework, whilst DTs can leverage that data for effective and reliable decision-making. In the AEC-FM industry, these technologies are nascent; however, their potential integration could tackle critical issues regarding stakeholder collaboration and information fragmentation, leading to value generation in a decentralised and immutable manner. This study offers insights into implementation strategies for a BC-enabled DT collaborative environment and contributes to accelerating the industry’s approach to digital transformation
