Sustainable Construction: The Role of Emerging Technologies

The construction industry is a key part of the global economy and society, but it also greatly impacts the environment. We need to keep building, but how we do so has effects that go far beyond the site itself. High carbon emissions, a huge amount of waste sent to landfills and massive quantities of materials extracted from the earth are just three sustainability challenges the industry must urgently solve. Much progress has been made, but there is still a long way to go. Every aspect of construction projects can be made more sustainable, and emerging technologies may hold the key. Read on to learn more about the problem and discover how to make your construction operations more sustainable using Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software as part of an overall sustainability solution.

Leverage Technology for Greener Construction Practices

As the threat of climate change becomes clearer, sustainability has become an urgent priority in all walks of life. The construction industry is known to significantly impact the environment, and solutions must be found to change this. In this whitepaper, we establish the scale and severity of the challenge before making some proposals for how construction firms can begin to address it. We discuss how Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software and other key technologies can make your projects more sustainable, consider what barriers you might face when implementing them, and explain how these can be overcome.
