Background and objectives

The e-Business W@tch study of ICT and e-business in the construction industry of 2006 points at a number of interesting developments: new possibilities for digital modelling and exchange of electronic documents are gaining ground; however, large construction enterprises and the public sector are driving these developments, while the plethora of smaller firms from the industry tend to lag behind.

At this workshop, e-Business W@tch presents its preliminary findings for the construction industry and discusses them with industry representatives. Issues include electronic procurement, project web and 3D technologies (Building Information Modelling).

Results of this workshop will be used to validate and consolidate the findings of the Interim sector study.
