AI in Construction Thematic Report Overview
The construction industry has been slower than other sectors to implement AI as it is a difficult industry to digitalize. The vast and complex data sets needed for building information management (BIM) have been historically difficult to process. However, AI adoption in the construction industry is gaining traction and will continue to grow over the coming years. This is becoming possible due to developments in chips and cloud computing. AI applications in the construction industry can facilitate planning, design, modeling, safety, site monitoring and maintenance, and emissions tracking.
The Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Construction thematic intelligence report assesses how AI, combined with other emerging technologies, can be used across the construction value chain. It provides an overview of the current landscape, as well as key players, while also highlighting opportunities for the use of AIs in the future. The report provides an industry-specific analysis based on GlobalData databases and surveys.

AI in Construction - Value Chain Analysis
The AI value chain is split into five segments which are hardware, data management, foundational AI, advanced AI capabilities, and delivery.
Hardware: The hardware value chain can be further divided into semiconductors, cameras, sensors and lasers, and servers, among others. The AI hardware stack is not too dissimilar from any IT system, although parts such as semiconductors, cameras, sensors, and edge equipment are very AI-specific. On the other hand, servers, storage, and networking equipment are standard and not designed specifically for AI use cases.

Key Highlights
The construction industry is widely considered one of the least digitized industries and has been slower to adopt AI than other sectors. This is due to a number of unique challenges the industry faces. Historically, computers did not have the processing power necessary to crunch the data needed for BIM, as it is often vast and unstructured. Access to this data was also notably inconvenient. However, in 2023, due to developments in computer power, semiconductors, and cloud computing, which facilitates data sharing, AI implementation has grown considerably.
