Yes, the construction industry is the least digitized but in the past two years, there was a substantial acceleration of companies looking to digitize and modernize how they work, especially in the Mid-Market, which is a good sign. Luckily, there exist numerous technologies that could radically improve efficiency, productivity, and safety in the sector.

Companies are investing in digital transformation with increasing momentum. According to predictions from the IDC, global spending on digital transformation technology will reach $1.8 trillion in 2019, a 17.9% jump from 2018.By 2023, that number is expected to eclipse $6 trillion.
Digital adoption refers to the ability of users to use digital tools as they are intended and with maximal capabilities. In other words, users aren’t limited to a few elementary features — they have the ability to perform any task or process on a given tool, regardless of how complex it may be. Digital adoption is fundamental to digital transformation success. Without it, it’s impossible to achieve the goals that drive your digital investments. With enough money, any company can buy the most capable software. But unless your users can actually take advantage of what that software has to offer, its potential will never be fulfilled, and neither will your strategic objectives.
A digital adoption platform is a solution that enables full usability on any software, website, or app. Digital adoption platforms use algorithms that analyze each individual user’s behavior and needs digital adoption and deploys tailored, onscreen guidance to ensure they can complete any task .Aside from navigational assistance, a digital adoption platform offers a detailed look into the user journey. It provides data-driven insights on process completion and user behavior to show administrators which features are underutilized and where inefficiencies exist. A digital adoption platform can also be used to automate mundane tasks in dramatically improve efficiency and engagement.
There many common barriers to digital transformation, any combination of which could thwart your strategy. Some of the biggest include:
1. Employee resistance to change
2. Unclear vision of user value
3. Choosing the wrong vendor
4. Lack of flexibility
5. Failing to evolve your business model
These challenges are compounded for companies undergoing rapid growth.
The IDC outlined 10 predictions for the future of digital transformation in its latest FutureScape report. Here are three key forecasts:
1. By 2020, at least 55% of organizations will be considered “digitally determined,” or committed to the goal of fully adopting and implementing digital tools via new business models and digital products/services.
2. By 2023, 35% of employees will be working with AI-enabled tools, such as bots.
3. By 2023, 95% of organizations will have adopted new digital KPIs that prioritize innovation of products/services, data capitalization, and the employee experience
The short answer is never. Technological capabilities are constantly progressing, customer expectations are always on the rise, and the need to streamline internal efficiencies is ever-present. And, as investments in cloud-based systems continue to rise, the need to keep up with updates will be an integral part of overall digital strategy.
