What products will you be showcasing at the event?

And what value do these products bring to the region’s construction industry?
Autodesk AEC collection is used to achieve the technology of Building Information Modeling (BIM). BIM was made to target 3 major challenges for construction industry:
1- Modern projects are increasingly more complex
2- Companies face higher expectations and competitions
3- the construction industry must respond to change
Through BIM, the construction industry shall save more time, reduce project wastage, increase stakeholders’ collaboration, get accurate quantities, and more quality of work.
Are there challenges you are currently facing in the local construction industry?
Yes, Technology Adoption.
The construction industry, as a whole, is notoriously slow at adopting new technologies. Countless studies and surveys over the years have shown that business owners continue to under invest in technology, despite their acknowledgment of the many benefits that technology can provide to running their business and managing construction projects.
What are the latest solutions to overcome these?
BIM, Virtual Reality, project management software and mobile devices can help with scheduling, planning, communication and collaboration, which can lead to better productivity.
Also, Emerging technologies like VR and AR, robots, drones, 3D printing, the Internet of things (IoT), to be adapted in the construction industry.
Is there something you are really looking forward to in the pipeline?
We look forward to increasing construction companies’ awareness of the value of new technologies and trends in construction like BIM, mobility, cloud solution and IoT.
