[Free Download] Whitepaper: Solving the sustainability challenge

In a demanding market and with challenges on all fronts, construction firms in Australia and New Zealand are feeling the sustainability squeeze.

Pressure comes from regulation and reputation, from policy makers and construction workforces, and as a result of supply chain challenges and depleted resources. Construction businesses must reduce material requirements, reduce rework, do more with less and do it in a way that ensures safety, diversity and community engagement.

Globally, buildings and structures consume 36% of energy and account for almost 40% of energy-related carbon emissions. Productivity in this sector has increased just 1% annually over the last 20 years.

Construction businesses have been looking to digital technologies to help boost productivity across all segments and areas. However, many factors – cost and ROI justification, constantly evolving compliance and regulation standards and a lack of technological consistency throughout supply chains – have slowed progress.

In this paper we discuss these challenges, their solutions, and what best practice looks like when digital construction tools and software enable the transformation of project management, resource use and emissions tracking.
