This timely book provides an innovative study of the profound
changes and latest challenges facing the construction sector. It
adopts a socio-technical approach to analyse not only the role of
technological factors, but also that of actors and their social
dialogue and industrial relations. Digital Transitions and
Innovation in Construction Value Chains investigates evolution
within the construction sector relating to increased
digitalization, including the growing use of smart devices and
building information modeling (BIM) applications. Drawing on
research from across Europe, chapters detail methodologies based on
three main data sources: direct observation, documentary analysis
and qualitative survey tools. Ultimately, they highlight the
advantages and potential disadvantages of the role of social
dialogue and collective bargaining for the democratic management of
digitalization in the sector. Academics and researchers within the
fields of economics, innovation and construction management will
find the methodologies and conclusions presented within this book
to be of great benefit. Practitioners in the construction sector
will also appreciate the insights offered.
