The construction sector continues to be critically important for the whole economy. Employing nearly 9% of the global workforce and contributing 14,2% to global GDP, the buildings, roads, and hospitals it builds improve society and allow other sectors to function and create more wealth.
Yet another ‘hot topic’ in the construction industry is digital transformation. This is seen as a bit of a buzzword (or phrase) but rather than an issue facing the industry it can be harnessed to be part of the solution to many of the challenges we face.
NTI Diatec is committed to solving the most pressing challenges the construction industry faces today.
The construction industry is responsible for 11% of the planet's carbon emissions during construction and 28% from building operations. There is a continuous effort to construct lower-impact structures while meeting increasing societal demands for quicker and more cost-effective builds.
Sadly, this is not the only challenge the construction industry is facing today. We are all struggling with supply chain issues, in both increasing and unstable costs and availability of material costs, making it difficult (to say the least) to price jobs, keep them on track and make a profit.
With the global issues we are currently experiencing this is unlikely to stabilise in the short to medium term.
We are also seeing an unprecedented shortage in staff and skills in the industry. With 63% of trades in the UK struggling to find staff to meet project requirements in 2023 and a predicted 8.3% rise in labour costs due to high demand, it is no surprise that many organisations state this is the biggest issue they face this year.
