The fundamentals of construction have not changed significantly in the last 100 years, however the industry is often criticised for being slow to innovate. This is partially due to in large amount of stakeholders to manage, but as technology becomes simplier to deploy and scale at a more attractive price point - the onus is on the construction industry to adopt more collaborative working practices and new methodologies, such as Building Information Modelling.
