ACHIEVING MORE WITH THE SAME RESOURCES
Many industries are currently struggling to attract and retain sufficient skilled employees, and this is certainly the case in civil engineering and construction. As the industry faces up to human resources shortages in key roles such as planners, schedulers, estimators, and cost engineers, it needs technology providers to boost the automation of repetitive, lower-value tasks, so that the existing skilled workforce can enjoy increased productivity and job satisfaction. “A lot of projects remain very manual, even in major tier-one organisations,” says the director. “Civil infrastructure lags behind pretty much every other industry in terms of digitisation; we need vendors to help us increase productivity and allow our people to work on higher-value tasks.”
He concludes: “Digital transformation isn’t easy. For us, the key to success has been getting executive input and support from the outset. Start with the senior executives and have a good business plan in place: the what, the why and the how. With a well-thought-out business plan, you’ll find it much easier to get key stakeholders on board and maximise the benefits of embracing digital ways of working.”
