Four Topics of Distruption in Preconstruction
With a continuing evolution from a silo'd design/bid/build estimating approach to more integrated and robust pre-construction services, technology is increasingly automating lower value workflows, while enabling pre-construction professionals to deliver ever more value in areas such as conceptual estimating, value engineering, and life cycle costing - helping their clients save more time and money while also reducing risk and improving the quality of outcomes.
In this Briefing, we highlight four ways pre-construction technology is evolving through the lens of some of this year's past and upcoming calls and conference sessions on the topic.
Members can learn more by watching the past videos and signing up for upcoming events to meet the experts and see their presentations. They can also access research reports such as our Construction Technology Report and our Pre-Construction Reports to learn more about trends, most used solutions, and adoption rates of different aspects of technology. For a survey of players, we also offer our Top Lists and Company Directory. It is all aimed at providing the most comprehensive look at the major themes impacting the industry and the best opportunity to meet and hear from the key players in the sector.
See Our Pre-Construction 50 List For a Sample of Some of the Solutions We are Tracking
Our Preconstruction 50 List focuses on the sub-sectors of preconstruction we follow: Prequalifications, Bid Management, Estimating, Scheduling, Modeling and Visualization, and Value Analysis/Value Engineering.
Case Study One: Pype and AI-Leveraged Specifications Analysis.
2020 BuiltWorlds Digital Summit – Case Study: Leveraging Tech for Pre-Construction & Planning
2020 Digital Summit Case Study: Leveraging Tech for Pre-Construction & Planning Thursday, 5/7 1:30pm-2pm We’ll explore how Skanska, ranked #7 on the 2019 ENR Top 400 Contractors, is utilizing Pype […]
