The construction software sector has seen new and more sophisticated software programs being developed to help surveyors, designers, engineers and project managers involved in construction projects to work more efficiently, more collaboratively and to reduce costs. This sector is very competitive with a number of technology-led firms that heavily invest in researching and developing new packages, including construction project management software, construction estimating software, as well as more low-level and specific applications.   

This 42-page digital publication includes the latest construction software developments from the major suppliers. If you have an interest in construction software this supplement will provide you with unique and in-depth insights into the latest developments in this sector.

What you can find in the Software supplement:


  • The rapid pace of technological development of construction software delivers a steady flow of new packages to customers, heightened by the intense competition between key players.

  • Advanced software systems allow clients, engineers, designers and planners to develop projects efficiently and more quickly than in the past.

  • Cloud computing and the internet further broaden the sphere of construction software. One of the issues is with data handling as point cloud technology or continuous sensor systems retrieve vast quantities of information, which then have to be collated and analysed effectively.

  • Building information modelling (BIM) processes continue to evolve from their original conception.
