Dec - JanCONSTRUCTIONBUSINESSREVIEW.COM6The global construction industry is poised for a surge in digital connectivity. Digital disruption trends and innovations in the engineering and construction (E&C) industry are rapidly gaining traction, and firms should be exploring the benefits and competitive advantage that digital technologies can provide.Many construction-technology start-ups have focused on tools that promote digital collaboration--the online exchange of information--throughout all E&C project phases. E&C stakeholders--including architects, engineers, and foremen--are more widely dispersed than most other industries. Purpose-built digital collaboration tools are helping them streamline workflow to shrink timelines or costs. Back-office integration, involving functions such as accounting, finance, and human resources, are also getting a tech-lift. Many back-office use cases focus on scheduling, managing equipment, and enterprise resource planning.Driven by these solutions, the construction industry is expected to grow rapidly in the coming years, reaching $15 trillion in revenue by 2025. Construction Business Review also shines a light on many other key developments in the industry, demonstrating how E&C firms are reshaping the future of construction.
