77% of people are concerned that artificial intelligence (AI) will cause job loss in the next year.

One McKinsey report predicts that AI-related advancements may affect around 15% of the global workforce by 2030.

Think that the building industry is immune to these changes?

Think again…

AI in construction can streamline processes, enhance productivity, and optimise resource usage. 

To succeed in residential construction in 2024 and beyond, building companies need to embrace AI.

Not staying up to date with the latest trends in AI could be a critical mistake for builders. It will gain momentum much quicker than you think.

Why AI in Construction Could Change the Industry Forever

Here are just some of the ways AI could revolutionise the building industry:

  • AI-powered software can analyse vast amounts of data, including architectural designs, floor plans, and construction regulations, to assist in the design and planning phase.
  • AI can automate project management tasks by monitoring progress, tracking milestones, and identifying bottlenecks.
  • AI algorithms can analyse historical data, market trends, and supplier performance to optimise your supply chain.
  • AI-powered visual inspection systems will detect defects, deviations from plans, and structural weaknesses during construction.
  • AI chatbots and virtual assistants can enhance customer service by providing instant responses to enquiries, scheduling appointments, and guiding potential clients through the sales process.
  • AI can help you identify opportunities within your organisation where AI integrations can help you drive growth, efficiency, and competitive advantage. 

And that is only scratching the surface…
