How are construction and infrastructure organisations creating, managing, and making use of quality and timely information?
What value does this deliver for those organisations as well as their customers and wider stakeholders?
Advances in digital technologies and data are transforming how our economy functions and the way we live our lives. The built environment is becoming smarter, with the rise of intelligent infrastructure enabled by the use of techniques such as machine learning and artificial intelligence. It drives efficiencies and optimises the performance of the nation’s built assets, which will help us to deliver on our national policy objectives to Build Back Better, Level Up the economy and transition to Net Zero.
Access to information (as data) of the right quality and at the right time, in a format that is trusted by all parties, is increasingly recognised as a critical enabler of the construction sector’s digital transformation, with the potential to both drive down costs in the construction and operation of built assets and drive up quality. However, there remains limited evidence on the holistic benefits of these practices.
