JANUARY 2019CIOAPPLICATIONS.COM6Construction Beyond Merely Brick and MortarTechnology has permeated into almost every sector today and currently; the construction space is no exception. Even the bigwigs of the construction industry, who have stood tall for decades now, have realized that embracing innovative modern practices of building dwellings is the best way to push the envelope. Employment of robot swarms for faster construction of dwellings could probably be one of the few innovative trends in the days to come. Quite similar to the way termites work in unison, the robotic swarm comprises of four-wheeled robots armed with sensors, programmed to accomplish a design and communicate with each other to execute tasks efficiently. The rise of several path-breaking technologies in the past few years has spurred the inception of many vendor firms around the globe dedicated towards bridging traditional construction enterprises with the best of what the world of technology has to offer. This constantly rising need to amalgamate best-of-breed technology into existing business processes has paved the way for an increase in collaboration with vendor firms. The trend also prompted our editorial board to conduct an extensive study of leading vendor firms globally and this edition of our magazine is a compilation of the collective efforts of all the members. We hope the holistic solutions being deployed by some of these innovative firms immensely benefit construction firms in the quest of ideal vendors.Joe PhillipManaging Editoreditor@cioapplications.comJoe PhillipCopyright © 2019 ValleyMedia, Inc.
