Technology adoption is now essential for the construction industry and the clients it serves. Rapid advances in digital tools, particularly artificial intelligence, create valuable opportunities to embrace the 'Fourth Industrial Revolution.'

 

Framed against a background of low productivity, resistance to change and longstanding fragmentation, the industry must unlock new sustainable value and previously unattainable efficiencies to thrive in the digital age. 

 

The confluence of Building Information Modelling (BIM) with blockchain and AI could provide a pivotal opportunity to redesign the infrastructure underpinning industry processes. Successful adoption will depend on overcoming implementation challenges and demonstrating sufficient feasibility, value and economic viability to achieve widespread commercial acceptance.
