A new study from the University of Sydney’s School of Engineering analyzes how digital tools shape construction practices in Australia. The research examined how three tiers of companies and various roles within those companies see the present and future of emerging technologies.

An observation that stands out is that the smallest companies rate the importance of new technology much lower than the larger ones.

How they studied
The researchers gathered insights from 8 expert interviews and 66 survey respondents. The number of experts reached is moderate, so the results offer meaningful insights rather than a definitive overall picture of the Australian industry.
