The construction industry has not only weathered challenges but has also emerged stronger and more innovative at the end of 2023. As we waved farewell, it’s time to reflect on the dynamic year that it has been for the industry. From sustainability to technology, the construction sector has laid the groundwork for a future that is both progressive and transformative. In this blog, we will explore the trends and achievements that have left a lasting impact on the landscape of construction.  1. Sustainable Construction  Construction projects in execution comprise of a significant numb ..read more

In the fast-paced world of technological advancements, the construction industry finds itself at a critical juncture. The sudden infusion of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and advanced tools has created both opportunities and challenges. While the onset of Industry 5.0 is on the horizon, the construction sector must take a step back and ensure it has a solid foundation before taking the leap. In this article, we explore the construction industry’s current state, the need for alignment in processes and tools, and the role that process-led innovation need to play in building stronger foundations ..read more

In the fast-paced world of construction, staying ahead is not just a choice but a necessity. However, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the construction industry often fall behind in technological adoption as compared to their counterparts. From budget constraints to the absence of dedicated IT support teams, these factors can affect the perception, investment, usage, and preference of software in SME construction projects. It can lead to inefficiencies in the construction projects which will in turn increase the overall cost in the long run. An absence of complete information about ..read more

The World Economic Forum classifies SMEs as the foundation for strengthening 90% of the global economy. It is further responsible for capturing 70% of job creation and GDP. According to the United Nations Report, the development of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) is given high priority by many governments across the world for its potential to create 600 million jobs by 2030. With SMEs creating 7 out of 10 formal jobs, in the UK alone it is observed that 3.1 million people, approximately 9% of the total UK workforce is employed in the construction sector (United Nations). However, in ..read more

An industry such as construction can never go unnoticed by anyone’s eye. The construction industry’s growth rate is so steady at 3.9% that if you stacked all the newly built skyscrapers each year, you might just reach the moon in a few decades! While the growth rate might be steady, it comes at a huge cost of increasing emissions. While accounting for carbon footprint and global warming, this relationship between the industry’s growth and emissions points to a questionable figure on sustainability, today.  Picture 1: Enabling Sustainable Delivery Sustainability is predominantly transla ..read more

Global warming, go green, green buildings, sustainable construction. Hardly a day passes by without us coming across headlines that scream these words. Yes, global warming is real. Yes, a spike in carbon emissions is real. However, what role does the construction industry have in this initiative? The following facts will come as an eye-opener. According to a European Commission report, construction and demolition waste (C&D) accounts for more than a third of all waste generated in Europe. The Environmental Protection Agency found that 600 million tons of construction and demolition debris ..read more

Lean 4D is an extension of 3D with the time included in addition to the other three dimensions. Our Lean 4D helps all the project participants including the architects, contractors and the owners to visualise the complete process of construction and understand the progress of activities throughout the lifecycle of the project. With model on the top and schedule in the bottom (4D view) allows the construction workers to visualise their assigned work for the upcoming/current week and let’s transit back and forth with respect to time. It helps them to explore production planning and also ..read more

With passenger traffic set to double by 2035, the pressure on airports and their associated infrastructure to be future-ready are mounting. As airports become more like small cities, masterplans must accommodate passenger growth not only by adding terminal space but also by adding additional infrastructure. So, you can imagine the magnitude of this project when we say that Heathrow is one of the World’s busiest international airports. The ‘Hub of the Civil Aviation World’, Heathrow handles over 80 million passengers annually. Case Overview To maximise airline revenues and airport reputation ..read more
