BENCHMARKING PROGRAM OVERVIEW
The BuiltWorlds Benchmarking Program offers Engineering and Construction Companies the opportunity to understand their own technology adoption and utilization relative to the broader industry. Through comprehensive surveys available to both members as well as the broader construction community, BuiltWorlds is able to review and assess the current state of technology adoption and utilization. Companies that take the surveys are provided tech assessment reports that identify variances between the survey responses and industry averages. Additionally, member companies are able to access annual benchmarking reports that provide detailed information on which solutions are gaining the most traction, which solutions are most used today, and how contractors rate their solutions across a variety of criteria.
BENCHMARKING PROGRAM AWARDS
Digital Leader Badges are conferred on the construction companies that exemplify the greatest extent of quality technology adoption. The 2022 Digital Leader award winning companies are listed below.
