Like all industries, the construction sector is digitising – both out on site, and in the back-office, and in New Zealand.

Wellington companies LawHawk and a local construction company recently won a World Commerce & Contracting Award for Operational Improvement for their work to automate the preparation and signing of the Master Builders SA-2017 subcontract.  The project reduced weeks of time to less than a day.  Quality is better, risks are reduced, and staff and subcontractors are happier too.

Gene & Phil will give a presentation on their particular project, as well as other automation initiatives in the construction sector including:

·      Engineering NZ and ACE NZ’s producer statements

·      3910

·      Consultancy agreements

·      The rise of “no code” software, putting the power in the hands of subject matter experts and “citizen developers”

·      Where it is all heading, and what it could mean for quantity surveyors.
