New technologies are transforming all stages of the engineering and construction process.

Technology, the New age in Construction

Over the last decade, rapidly evolving technologies have revolutionized almost every industry and sector; telecommunications, financial services, transportation, retail and more. However, the world of construction is ranked amongst the least digitized sectors globally, according to the McKinsey Global Institute’s digitization report*. Spending on technology and R&D both typically account for less than 1% of revenues.   At North China Construction Nigeria Ltd we recognise the essence of technology in building construction, therefore, we have invested greatly in technology to facilitate the efficiency of construction engineering projects, the reduction of project durations and the improvement and reduction of defects correction processes.

Complex projects, tight schedules and increasing demand for large-scale construction all necessitate the application of the latest technologies and innovations.

The technological transformation

The Engineering and Construction (E&C) industry is on the cusp of a new era, with technology driving innovation by creating new applications and tools that are changing how Construction firms design, plan, and execute projects. By providing advanced software, construction-focused hardware, and analytics capabilities, these innovations are eliminating many of the problems that have dogged the E&C sector for decades, including difficulties compiling and sharing project information. Such improvements could not come at a better time, since construction projects are becoming increasingly complex and expensive, putting managers under greater pressure to improve costs, timelines, and efficiency.
