Digital Technologies and Prefabrication Present Key Opportunities In Specialty Construction

LONDON, GREATER LONDON, UK, July 19, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Using methods that increase productivity has given a boost to the specialty construction market, raising its growth from 4.3% to 7.6% year on year, The Global Construction Market Strategies And Opportunities To 2021, a new report from The Business Research Company has shown. This is because for most contractors’ yearly revenue is not determined by how many jobs they can sell but how many they can build. These new methods include digital technology and prefabrication.
Specialty construction contractors are increasingly using digital technologies such as smart phones, RFID (radio frequency identification) tagging and software to improve labor productivity, safety and cost control. Mobile phones help workers to share information on jobsites and file reports about the building progress. RFID tagging is used for materials handling and to track field personnel. SmartPM developed by Construx Solutions, is a construction project and data management software designed to give specialty construction contractors insights into scheduling logic, forecast end-date risks, and delay causation. MaxCon Software is specifically designed for roofing contractors, claiming to increase output while reducing, overhead, staff and other costs. Mobile apps such as Red-Trac, Labor Sync and Timesheet Mobile provide construction-specific services to contractors.

Prefabrication enhances quality control, improves consistency, reduces risks and helps in mitigating safety hazards. Bathroom pods, headwalls, pipe racks and assemblies, raceways and conduit banks and junction boxes are some of the prefabricated components being used by electrical and plumbing contractors. According to the 2012 Productivity Survey by FMI, a US-based management consulting firm, about 69% of construction contractors used prefabrication in their projects. Integrated Electrical Services (IES) Inc., one of the largest electrical contractors in the U.S., is developing and using prefabricated electrical systems in its construction projects.
