AEC is still too siloed: One of the big takeaways in trying to identify the problem leading to this lack of digital adoption in the industry is that the industry is simply too siloed and too hesitant to share ideas and successes across disciplines. This may stem from self-preservation and competition; a company that has found something that works to increase efficiency is too often not willing to share that with others.

On this topic, Aftahi notes that at aec+tech, their main challenge has been inviting AEC firms who are using these latest technologies to share with us what tools have been working, or haven’t been. She points out the competition and secrecy that is inherent to the industry as the major barrier to getting this type of information.
