On a big construction site, machines break down, the weather suddenly takes a turn for the worse, or an accident stops everything in its tracks. Make sure you have the data you need to take the best corrective actions. Use connected construction technology to make that new plan say three leading experts on machine control and connected construction in this, our latest World Highways Roundtable.
