Update on latest digital construction technologies available in India

07 Dec 2021 Editorial Team

India has been rapidly changing for the past decade. The pace for infrastructure construction has picked up substantially and many foreign firms have entered the country. All this has necessitated substantially increased pace of work, higher quality standards, and health, safety and environment standards matching international norms.

On the other hand, the availability of competent engineers and skilled manpower has decreased owing to easy access to more comfortable jobs for engineers and a tendency to run away from the hard conditions of project execution. With these challenges and the fact that projects can be bagged only at competitive prices, there is a dire need for out-of-the-box, non-conventional solutions. And many of these must be based on the premise that there will be a huge shortage of skilled manpower considering the increasing scales of work.

In fact, productivity or the total economic output per worker has remained flat in the construction industry. In comparison, productivity has grown 1,500 per cent in retail, manufacturing and agriculture since 1945. One of the reasons for this is that construction is one of the most under-digitised industries in the world and slows to adopt new technologies. As the saying goes, ‘If you’re not growing and adapting, you’re dead.’ Companies that stagnate tend to be left behind by a fast-moving, forward-thinking commercial environment.
