Many design systems are developed in the context of non-prefabricated buildings, and cannot be well suitable for prefabricated buildings which are being popular at present. In order to solve the problem, this paper introduces Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DFMA) into prefabricated building design, and combines it with parametric design of Building Information Modeling (BIM) to develop the concept and process of DFMA-oriented parametric design. For making DFMA-oriented parametric design implemented better, DFMA-oriented architectural design team, precast component creation process based on family template and DFMA, DFMA-oriented BIM re-development process, and optimization process of DFMA-oriented prefabricated building information model are also explored and developed. In the end, some principles of DFMA-oriented parametric design are partially reflected by several examples, and DFMA-oriented parametric design needs to be constantly improved according to its subsequent actual use.
