 PDF Key takeaways: The Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry faces severe challenges, with productivity issues topping the list. Construction firms need to better leverage advanced computing technologies and off-site fabrication to improve competitiveness and efficiency. Tools and experience supporting other major industries with off-site fabrication—such as automotive, aerospace, and shipbuilding—can be leveraged to great benefit. To best meet these challenges, companies need open, integrated systems that enable the free flow of information from product concept, through design and construction with current and future partners, and eventually through to owner operators. Industry Challenges Most of the built world results from work by the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry. Buildings, bridges, roads, processing plants, and other engineering marvels come from professionals in this important global market. The AEC industry’s mission is to complete the projects that shape our world. The AEC industry, estimated by some to be as high as 10% of global GDP, is an engine
