The AEC industry is in a phase of technology-led growth, with increased emphasis on efficiency and automation. Legacy manual processes are giving way to productivity enhancements through modern solutions. Investments in integrated processes and improved metrics are on the rise, and simple-to-use field tools and standardized project financials are now essential. Large firms are centralizing and automating project control, with a keen focus on predictive measures to ensure projects stay on track.

Leading companies are innovating in collaboration, connecting architects, engineers, trades, and contractors through real-time data sharing. The rise of integrated design-build companies, offering faster delivery and a unified contact point, is an emerging standard. The key to project success lies in meticulous planning and robust collaboration with third parties.
