SusTec researchers publish new report on digital trends in the building industry
What effects will digital building technology have on the building sector? How can decision-makers in politics and business exploit the potential of digitization? What does digitization in the building sector mean for innovation, competition, education and labor market policy? Our newly published report «Digital Trends in the Building Industry 2020» answers these questions and shows the diverse opportunities and risks of digitization in the building sector.
In order to show the possible consequences of digitization for the various stakeholders in the building sector, we have summarized our findings in the form of "What this means for..." for architects, planning offices, construction companies, project developers and political decision-makers in the report.
In addition to the report, we have also worked on other topics related to digital building technologies. On the one hand, we developed an interactive negotiation game "The Oronwo", in which participants can experience for themselves how digital building technology is changing the industry. The game displays the team dynamics that arise when stakeholders discuss whether to introduce a digital building technology into the project.
In a follow-up project, we also examined business models for digital building technologies. We have summarized our findings in the form of a "White Paper" in which we formulate recommendations for political decision-makers and best practice recommendations for technology developers and users. The White Paper will be published in multiple languages in the upcoming weeks so stay tuned.
