Digitization in Construction

Difficulties that construction industry businesses face when digitally transforming

The market changes day by day, more rapidly and unpredictably, especially in the current digital age. Factors such as inflation, economic crisis, natural disasters, pandemics, etc. contribute to unpredictable changes in the business environment. Businesses are forced to operate remotely, and plans and schedules fail to keep up with the changes of the times.

Digital transformation is a good opportunity for the construction industry to have a strong transformation. The proof is that the amount of capital that society devotes to the construction industry in the period from 2021 to 2025 is more than 40 billion USD/year. The trend of digital transformation in the construction industry will create a huge surplus value, helping businesses optimize operational productivity and increase competitiveness in the market.

However, to complete this transformation, businesses must face many challenges:

Lack of tech-savvy human resources

Employees working in the construction industry must also understand the importance of digital transformation for business development. This change is not a formality but a change from within the business mindset and business building. For this transformation process to take place successfully, each employee must have a positive attitude to learn, progress, and be creative.  However, the number of human resources who can apply technology to their work is still not much. This is what puts great pressure on businesses to survive and develop in difficult times, especially after the pandemic.

Lack of investment in technology platforms

Technology platform is one of the key factors for the successful digital transformation of the construction industry. Technology platforms must also be built to suit the business model, field and digitalization plan of the enterprise. To obtain these elements, businesses are required to go through a meticulous calculation process to create a detailed digital transformation plan, thereby finding the most suitable direction for their organization. Enterprises must focus on building technological infrastructure, machinery and equipment to meet the requirements of the digitalization process in construction.

Cost issue

Cost is a critical issue for every business. The digital transformation process requires the application of many modern technologies. Therefore, businesses have to spend a lot of money to invest in hardware and equipment as well as train and attract talent. At the same time, another factor causing difficulties for businesses in the digital transformation process is changes in working methods. Especially for small and medium-sized businesses, financial capacity is still limited.

Stagnation, lack of drastic

To win success in the digital transformation process requires businesses' great determination. If the construction business leaders lack commitment and determination, the digital transformation process will be difficult. In addition, the lack of learning spirit in the company, fear of risks, and unwillingness to change working methods are other reasons for struggles in the digitalization process.
