14 vs. (Year 2020) Market Structure Characteristics Market Business Characteristics Presence of SMEs Strong presence of SMEs Use of Subcontracting SMEs acting as subcontractors and selected on the basis of cost/price SMEs operate typically on local or regional level Extensive Price-based (2020) Strong presence of SMEs Emerging types of specialised SMEs (e.g. sustainable construction, energy efficiency, smart materials, waste management) competing mainly on the basis of specialised services / offering Broader geographical presence and larger size of certain specialised SMEs More extensive More specialised, price-based Degree of Regulation High levels of regulation for energy and environment, labour requirements, and service/product quality standards Competition Fierce competition for SMEs Price-based Only leading designers and consultants and large construction companies compete on international level Types of Relationships Business Models Short-term relationships Opportunistic relationships Lack of trust and commitment System integrator (main contractor) coordinating multiple satellite actors (subcontractors) Alternative types of business models Increased regulation levels in terms of energy, environment, workforce welfare, and quality of services Securing a level playing field in terms of competition Fierce competition for SMEs Value-based (with price considerations) Delivery of environmentally sustainable construction solutions offering value over their lifecycle Balance between economic efficiency and environmental sustainability Increased internationalisation of business environment and competition for specialised SMEs and suppliers of (smart) construction materials Longer-term relationships Less opportunistic relationships Increase in trust and commitment Increase of PPPs and voluntary, collaborative relationships Increasing use of integrated contracts 14
15 Intensity of Data/Information Exchange Prevailing presence of the main contractor and the design/building team Highest frequency of exchange between main contractor and subcontractors Clients mainly interact with the main contractor Subcontractors mainly interact with the main contractor and suppliers The flow of data/information depends on the business model and the type of contract Intensity of interactions varies throughout the lifecycle and in terms of direction 15
16 Objectives Chapter 1 & Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 4 ICT Chapter Needs 5 Chapter 6 Chapter 7 Chapter 8 Importance and Frequency of Data/Information Exchange 16
17 RFID EDI SCM MRP PMIS e-collaboration e-procurement CPC e-invoicing GIS CAD/CAE 3D/4D BIM Analysis Systems CAFM BEMS/BAS PMS Objectives & Data/Information Exchanged by ICT Systems Used in Construction Client requirements Technical specifications Drawings / models Building product information Building standards Calculations (e.g. design, quantity, cost) Planning and delivery information As-built / As-maintained information Energy measurements / certificates Order / Payment information (including invoices) Tender / contract information Installation certificates / Maintenance instructions Permits/ licenses Certain types of information (e.g. drawings/models, building product information, calculations, as-built/as- maintained information) are handled by a diverse number of ICT systems creating interoperability problems that should be addressed by the Framework in WP2. 17
18 ICT in Construction Assessment of the current use and level of adoption of ICT systems and standards Online survey conducted between mid-march and mid-may 2013 Target: supply chain actors of all sizes (i.e. micro, small, medium, large) and various types of business activity (Design and Engineering, Suppliers, Construction companies, Consulting/Management, Regulatory/Governmental bodies) More than 3,500 professionals were contacted personally (via and LinkedIn) International branch organisations supported/promoted further the survey Companies/professionals not having internet access were, by default, excluded (due to the internet-based nature of the survey) Self-selection bias 217 completed (and analysable) questionnaires from 20 countries in EU27 Sample (Analysed Data) A representative subset of 138 respondents from 11 countries in EU27 was analysed (only countries with 10 or more responses). In the case of Greece -initially representing 35.5% of the Complete Set of responses - random sampling was applied. 18
19 Adoption of Different Means for Data/Info Exchange the predominant means of exchange with adoption rates for almost all types of data/information (except GIS data) exceeding 75% Non electronic means: varying rates of adoption (10-60%); high levels of adoption for the exchange of invoices, tenders, and permits/licenses Non internet-based means: adoption rates ranging from 20% (invoices) to 45% (requirements, technical specs) Cloud services and corporate web portals: adoption rates in a range 20-30% more focused on the exchange of drawings/ models, building standards (cloud services); technical specifications and building product information (web portals) EDI/Web EDI and XML web services: very low adoption (<10%) 19
20 Use of ICT Systems Large companies exhibit, in general, higher adoption rates than SMEs ICT Infrastructure: very high adoption rates of Intranet/Extranet (89% for large companies, 68% for SMEs) Internal and External e-collaboration: great variation for EDI and ERP (SMEs at about 20% and large companies around 40%); low adoption rates for MRP (12% for both SMEs and large companies); relatively high adoption of accounting, project management and planning, and e-collaboration tools (40-50% for SMEs and 55-60% for large companies) e-sourcing and e-procurement: lower adoption rates of e-procurement/e-tendering for SMEs (23%) as compared to large companies (38%) Online Marketing and Sales: low current use of online selling (8% for SMEs and 22% for large companies) and e-invoicing (20% for SMEs and 27% for large companies) Construction and Design Support: relatively high levels (especially CAD above 60%) both by SMEs and large companies; lower adoption rates for specialised analysis and collaborative design systems (20-30% by SMEs, 40-50% by large companies) 20
21 Importance of Perceived Benefits from ICT Adoption Special emphasis on: increase in speed and reliability of data/information exchange and increase in productivity SMEs vs. Large Companies More important for SMEs: benefits related to the increase of market potential and innovation capacity 21
22 Most important problems/barriers: Financial affordability / cost of ICT solutions Importance of Lack Perceived of customisation Problems/Barriers to ICT Adoption Lack of construction-specific solutions Technological interoperability and compatibility issues Limited ICT awareness SMEs vs. Large Companies Lack of financial resources is considered a greater barrier for SMEs, whereas large companies are more concerned with interoperability with existing company systems 22
23 Planned Use of ICT Systems (next 2 years) Based on input from the online survey (2020) Based on expert judgments provided in the 1 st Expert Group Meeting Potential Impacts Assessment of potential impacts resulting from the future uptake of ICT on the efficiency and competitiveness of construction supply chain enterprises based on input from the 1 st Expert Group Meeting 23
24 Planned Use of ICT Systems (next 2 years) ICT Infrastructure and External e-collaboration: adoption rates of MRP and SCM are expected to increase substantially (almost double) in the next 2 years e-sourcing and e-procurement: rapid increase in the use of e-procurement/ e-tendering in the next 2 years both by SMEs (+56%) and large companies (+43%) Online Marketing and Sales: online selling and e-invoicing are expected to more than double within the next 2 years for SMEs (+50% for large companies) Construction and Design Support: with the exception of CAD systems (already used at high levels) the use of all other systems is considered to increase substantially (by 30-40%) in the next 2 years particularly for SMEs (slightly lower for large companies) 24

27 Importance of Factors Determining ICT 27
28 vs. ICT (2020) vs. per Category of ICT Systems The future ICT uptake of all categories of ICT systems in 2020 is expected to be significantly higher (more than double) than the current ICT uptake. The Technological Readiness of a company in adopting ICT is significantly more important than the Technological Effectiveness of ICT systems. Findings are in alignment with the planned use of the corresponding systems within the next 2 years (online survey). 28
29 Perceived ICT Impacts on Efficiency and Competitiveness Significant improvement of productivity in terms of external/internal business processes, innovation capacity, and efficiency of data/info exchange Moderate improvement in terms of costs and sales Significant improvement of market potential (e.g. ability to promote to targeted markets, geographical presence); Moderate improvement of temporal market presence 29
30 Types and Industry Standards Machine-to-machine (e.g. communication protocols) and syntactical (e.g. data format and structure) interoperability Technical Most of the identified standards deal with technical interoperability Increasing importance of semantic standardisation need for more investment and support to further develop in the future among different business processes of parties involved in data/information exchange Semantic Process Uniform and consistent interpretation of exchanged data/information Scarce due to abstract nature ( soft aspects) and complexity of processes 30
31 Standardisation Efforts / Initiatives Standardisation Efforts/Initiatives De facto (industrial) standards led by consortia rather than organisations developing standards Most of the standardisation efforts are operated under open models Prominent standards in terms of maturity, vendor support, and user adoption are those developed by buildingsmart consortium for BIM covering all three layers of interoperability: IFC, IFD and IDM Other prominent standards - due to the flexibility and wide adoption of XML - are XML-based (e.g. ifcxml, LandXML, gbxml), as well as RDF and OWL, which are also XML-based Some efforts (e.g. CIS/2) seem to be converging towards buildingsmart Some overlapping between existing standardisation efforts (e.g. buildingsmart and OGC consortia) might also occur in the future 31
32 Problems / Challenges Lack of standard data format: technical drawings and 3D models, as well as design specifications and requirements require a standard data exchange format that should be adhered to by software vendors. Lack of common language: the semantic aspect of interoperability has a serious impact on the interpretation of data/information exchanged and particularly on specifications and requirements. Lack of computer-readable data: data/information is often exchanged in textual form rather than a software-interpretable format. This mostly affects requirements and specifications. Incompatible formats: formats for geometric information do not support requirements and vice versa. As a result, automatic validation and verification of requirements is impossible. Loss of information: the lack of a common format and viewer software on the client side often leads to loss of information. Large file size: files are often too large to be exchanged via which constitutes the dominant medium for data/information exchange. problems that cannot be tackled by existing ICT solutions constitute Gaps that are prime candidates to be addressed by the Framework (WP2) 32
33 Way Forward Prioritisation of interoperability gaps and detailed assessment (including feasibility) of alternative solutions Final selection and detailed definition of the business scenarios involving: various combinations of construction supply chain actors of different company sizes and with different levels of ICT familiarity / digital maturity multiple phases and processes of the construction project lifecycle various types of data/information (e.g. technical, business/administrative) exchanged various types of business models and the resulting allocation of roles and responsibilities among supply chain actors 33
34 In a Nutshell High fragmentation, strong presence of SMEs, short-term relationships, intensive exchange of information (in terms of multiple actors, multiple phases, frequency of exchange, heavy files) Low ICT uptake, very low integration of heterogeneous systems among business partners, lack of interoperability, standardization efforts are under way but de jure standards are not yet there Information exchange needs will be intensified, future ICT uptake will increase The technological readiness of a company has a major influence on ICT uptake Efforts aiming to increase ICT uptake should primarily focus on the company s readiness in terms of technological capacity, in-house ICT expertise, ICT security and trust, as well as awareness of ICT benefits The public sector can play an instrumental role in: i) increasing the technological readiness of companies (especially SMEs) and ii) raising (SMEs) awareness about ICT benefits 34
35 In a Nutshell The Framework (WP2) should capitalize on de facto standards buildingsmart) and should cater to the needs of SMEs (e.g.!!! Source: 35
