Digitalisation can improve productivity and performance issues in the NSW construction industry. This project will develop a policy framework for digital transformation of the NSW construction sector, which is dominated by micro and SME businesses. It will use a multifaceted methodology that combines a horizon scan of emerging digital technologies and stakeholder and expert forums to explore grassroots demand. The DigiCon Policy Framework developed through this project will position NSW as a leader in digital construction practices and foster economic growth, sustainability, and improved infrastructure outcomes.
