Digital process methods and implementations for field

Static information created by siloed production methods can lead to duplication of effort and lack of connectivity between phases as information is passed between survey, design, construction, and asset management. In addition, not utilizing effective change management strategies to update processes and train staff can slow progress in adoption of new digital processes and approaches. This research will build on previously completed research to investigate and provide actionable methods and change management strategies for utilizing digital processes and technology for construction field applications. This research will identify and present strategies for streamlining processes for construction including but not limited to, equipment procurement, staff training, integration of tools, and digital inspection methods.
