A new age of construction is here, involving things that sound straight out of a sci-fi movie. With construction workers used to ‘doing it all,’ using robots or AI during the preconstruction planning process or on-site may feel unnatural.

The U.S. is spending more on commercial construction this year, but economists view the outlook for 2025 with cautious optimism. That was the consensus during ConstructConnect®'s fall 2024 webinar, "The Construction Economy Outlook: 2025 Starts Now."

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is here to stay. Leaders in construction are embracing AI in new areas — like estimating to improve their workflows — and with good reason. While traditional estimating methods rely on time-intensive manual work with the potential for error, AI tools can produce estimates faster and more accurately. This growing technology addresses challenges in the industry, including labor shortages.

Raise your hand if you want 2025 to be your business’ best year yet. Yes, it’s easier said than done, but all it takes is strategy, preparation, and a little help from technology.
