While a construction project was once seen to be complete when it was built, this is no longer so. A built asset has a life going forward which unfolds as much in the digital as in the physical world. Understanding how to collaborate with, and share, data is now an essential pillar of operations. This paper investigates the essential first stages of putting that pillar in place.
In conjunction with a raft of technologies sweeping through the industry, mobile communications, and digital technologies such as laser scanning for setting out, are making construction more efficient, more collaborative, more transparent and capable. This paper looks at the concept of ‘paperless construction’ for contractors, which is precisely how digital construction manifests itself; simply replacing the old with the new.
