and competitive advantage—as well as a necessity to enhance access to project capital

• Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) is the third most important factor determining future success, as the sector
shifts away from its hard-hat image toward greater use of technology and more remote working.
• Owners are relatively more concerned with reducing greenhouse gases (GHG) while E&C companies place the
04
highest priority on DEI. Embodied carbon (carbon released during the construction process) is a growing concern
and is likely to be the subject of future regulations.
05
The great • The construction industry is starting to embrace the power of technology to transform performance—with 81
percent of E&C firms adopting mobile platforms, 43 percent using robotics process automation (RPA) and 40
innovation race percent adopting artificial intelligence (AI)—although many are in the early stages. 06
• When it comes to improving ROI on capability projects, project management information systems (PMIS),
building information modeling (BIM), and advanced data analytics are considered to have the greatest potential;
digital twins, modular/offsite manufacturing, AI, and BIM are driving the greatest gains in project performance.
• A vast majority of respondents say prefabrication is an important solution for capability projects, although just
one-quarter of E&C companies use modular manufacturing across all projects.
• There’s growing recognition of the power of technology to improve safety, notably from use of D&A and modular
manufacturing—the latter reduces dangerous, onsite work.

VR (either using or starting to use) has doubled
from 28 percent to 56 in the same time period.
Innovation is a familiar buzzword in board rooms, corporate offices and construction sites, and
some companies have made impressive progress. We’ve seen robotic dogs that “sniff out”
unsafe incidents and practices onsite, capture ongoing construction in three dimensions for
close-to-real-time work measurement, and check design alignment vis-à-vis a 3D model.
01
Then there’s the project owner organization that ordered out all major packages in record
time, by collectively bargaining with its service providers, shaving precious months off the
implementation schedule. In another example, a prime contractor uses 5D BIM layered
02
with its custom workflows and internally developed Theory Of Constraints (TOC)-based lean
construction methodology, for a fully integrated concept-to-design-to-delivery approach.
Digital technologies serve as one of the largest levers for owners and E&C firms to implement 03
innovative ideas and solve project implementation problems. The key is to use a combination
of already available and tested technologies.
In the rush for instant results that yield a positive, short-term ROI, many potential digital
technology investments are overlooked. A 3–5 year horizon is realistic when assessing the
04
investment case. And don’t underestimate the importance of cultural barriers in both owner
and contractor organizations; a shift in culture is often necessary to drive innovation at
business unit, functional and individual levels, creating a virtuous cycle. 05
As our survey responses demonstrate, established industry players are deploying PMIS, BIM
and advanced data analytics, and are making inroads into the use of digital twins, AI, VR/AR,
3D printing, RPA. The successful adopters are championing innovation from the very top and
investing in educating their teams. In addition to encouraging digital technology use for project
06
implementation, management can also apply these technologies to conduct management
reviews and governance, sending a further signal that the organisation is shunning
conventional, manual methods and striving for digital leadership.”
