WEBINAR THEME -

The thin margins, poor productivity, and labour shortages that characterize the construction industry aren’t new problems. Those of us who work in the AEC world have been dealing with these challenges for years.

And if we’re being honest, we’re getting a little tired of hearing about them. The problems with productivity, profitability, and personnel shortages have been discussed so much, they’ve lost some of their impact and immediacy. Plus, there are new issues that require our attention like increased health and safety requirements and regulations calling for more sustainable materials and construction processes . At the same time, rising raw material costs and distributed work teams require new and more efficient approaches to how the work is done.

The construction industry has dealt with the same problems for decades now. Point solutions can make incremental improvements, but to make massive strides we need to address the disconnects between people, processes, and technology that exist today. Connected Construction closes the gaps and creates transparency by providing an ecosystem for all stakeholders involved in the project lifecycle to access and share data, and work collaboratively toward a common end result. From designers, architects, and engineers to general contractors, subcontractors, and building materials suppliers, when every stakeholder knows what decisions are being made, who is making them, and why, the results of those decisions are more positive, predictable, and profitable.

Connected Construction is capable of serving and connecting all stakeholders across the lifecycle of construction projects. It helps everyone make better decisions from the start. And when problems do arise, you’re able to identify and resolve them faster. The hallmarks of Connected Construction are an open ecosystem, shared data, and real-time updates to that data. When you combine these powerful capabilities, you unleash the ability to make dramatic improvements like:

- Expand margins and market share

- Overcome the labour shortage

- Increase efficiency and sustainability

- Improve worker and jobsite safety

- Gain a competitive advantage

“Connected construction technology could enhance how Engineering & Construction companies deliver construction and infrastructure projects, drive down costs, and improve overall project execution and timeliness.” - Deloitte, Winning with Connected Construction, 2019

Given the costs and risks, maintaining the status quo really isn’t an option. Transformation is both necessary and achievable, and it starts with a long-term commitment to making needed improvements. Large-scale organizational change is generally best driven from the top down. Support from the highest level gives transformation efforts not just the attention they need but the cross-functional collaboration they require. Alignment across goals, people, process, data, and tools is critical to success.
