According to a 2024 survey by Turner & Townsend, over 60 percent of respondents are currently implementing digital strategies in the Middle East. This is in alignment with country specific initiatives, for example, Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 and UAE's Digital Government Strategy 2025. Digital strategies, such as the use of artificial intelligence (AI), drones, 3D printing and building information modelling (BIM), are hoped to enhance productivity improvement, strengthen collaboration and reach sustainability targets, as well as improve decision-making, quality control and budget management in the region. 90% of survey respondents believe that the digital transformation of the construction industry will lead to a more sustainable and environmentally conscious approach to building projects in the Middle East. Digital tools are helping to transform early-stage design optimisation and enable efficient carbon, cost and construction strategies. #digitaltransformation #contech #vision2030 #wakecap

The Construction Industry has been notably slow to adopt digital technologies. Factors such as high initial costs vs uncertain ROI, a digital literacy skills gap, complex regulatory compliance, the cost of moving away from legacy systems, an embedded culture of change resistance and the industry itself being heavily fragmented and siloed. Resistance to change can often be cited as the main blocker to any transformation. Conventional methods of working are more often than not championed by long-standing members of the Construction Industry. Despite the challenges mentioned, and many more, there are definite signs of increasing digital adoption, driven by the potential for improved efficiency and enhanced project outcomes. New technologies within areas such as BIM, AI, Drones, Augmented Reality, 3D Printing, Robotics and Construction Management Software are all contributing towards a measured transformation across the sector. As these technologies continue to evolve and their integration into workflows increases, their benefits will only become more evident. Digital Construction Week takes place on 5-6 June at the ExCeL London. Kane Selection Ltd will be there checking out the latest developments within construction digital technology. If you work within the Construction sector, you should come along too. #bim #build #construction #innovation

The Built Environment industry has traditionally been slow to adopt new technologies, but this trend is rapidly changing. Integrating digital tools and innovation, such as augmented reality (AR), drones, 3D scanning and printing, Building Information Modelling (BIM), autonomous equipment, and advanced building materials, is revolutionising the sector. While technological advancements are crucial, the construction industry must also undergo a cultural transformation. The narrative must shift from mere targets to being purpose-driven, ensuring regenerative behaviour. The built environment sector’s purpose is to solve societal and environmental problems profitably rather than profit from their creation. The sector can build a sustainable and prosperous future for all through collaboration, innovation, and a focus on societal and environmental responsibility. However, in order to do this, the industry must evolve to meet the demands of a rapidly changing society.
