"When it comes to adopting digital transformation in construction, there is often confusion about what that exactly means, according to the roundtable participants.
First and foremost, there’s an important difference between “digitization” and “digitalization.”
“Digitization is just taking what you have and making it digital; digitalization is changing the process so that it’s better,” said Vicki Reynolds, head of digital for I3PT and CertCentral, during the roundtable conversation.
The greater the awareness of how digitalization is the clients’ goal—rather than the mere digitization of data or designs—can be instrumental in driving digital transformation. Clients have a vested interest in the ongoing lifecycle of their building and the total cost of ownership (TCO); they should be the first to buy into a digital approach to garner the longest-term benefits of increased productivity, efficiency and more intelligent designs."
