Abstract

This paper utilises three studies conducted by Dodge Construction Network and published as part of its SmartMarket series on the use of digital technology by owners of building projects in the US. The data demonstrates that owners are increasingly engaging in the use of digital technologies such as project management information systems and are leading the US construction industry in their use of digital workflows that connect internal functions within their organisation. It identifies specific project management and related functions that are most commonly automated by owners, and it reveals those that are less commonly automated. The benefits that owners attribute to their use of these technologies are also identified and the degree to which digital transformation is still an ongoing process for most of them. It also examines the extent to which the use of these technologies is leading owners to mandate the use of specific digital tools and/or digital data deliverables from their supply chain, which has the potential to accelerate the process of digital transformation across the design and construction industry in the US.
