This is the time of year when many of us raise our gazes from the immediate task at hand and start thinking about the coming year and how to plan for it. For some, it also means looking past the day-to-day business to industry trends we may be contending with in the next year or two (count me among that lot). Lately, I’ve been thinking well beyond 2023, looking over the horizon and around the bend.
As I do this, my attention keeps returning to trends in construction technology and automation that I expect to facilitate positive change and minimize traditional downsides, along with the support we’ll need to provide as the industry evolves, rather than after the fact.
