The construction industry stands at a critical crossroads. With mounting pressure to deliver projects faster, safer, and more sustainably, the role of technology is no longer a matter of future potential; it’s a present-day necessity. From automation and data-driven design to machine control and connected workflows, digital innovation challenges long-standing assumptions about what’s possible on and off the jobsite and while AI, BIM, and other innovations continue to grow in popularity across the industry, many organisations still struggle with a lack of digital skills and preceieved high implementation cost which usually come due to tech interoperability issues. It’s a triple whammy!
So, for transformation on an industry scale to become a reality, we have to answer some really difficult questions: How do we balance the speed of innovation with a resilience to develop the skills needed to benefit, and can we meaningfully reduce inefficiencies without increasing complexity?
How are the digital and physical worlds converging in construction, and what does it take to lead the charge through that shift with clarity, purpose, and impact?
Stuart Campbell is the Senior Manager for Trimble in UK & Ireland. He is responsible for managing the team that promotes the Trimble AECO software portfolio within some of the largest main contractors, housebuilders, specialist subcontractors and engineering consultancies and in his spare time, Stuart is studying for an MBA at Alliance Manchester Business School.
What we cover in this live episode:
- Overestimating the pace of innovation and underestimating the depth of skills needed
- The responsibility enterprises have within the industry
- The risks of over-digitising
- It’s the 10-year anniversary of DCW. Where will Construction Technology be in a decade?
