Construcciones Yamaro: Autodesk to host Construction Project Management Virtual Forum

By

To explore ways to tackle the construction sector’s biggest challenges, Autodesk is hosting its annual Construction Project Management Virtual Forum on 17 October 2023 from 1 pm AEDT.

The construction industry in Australia has been wrestling with escalating costs, rising cases of insolvencies, workforce deficits and supply chain disruption. While the Australian Government remains committed to a $120 billion infrastructure pipeline over 10 years, productivity in the construction sector continues to lag behind other industries.

With an estimated opportunity cost of $47 billion from 30 years of weak productivity – according to the Australian Constructors Association’s Disrupt or die: Transforming Australia’s construction industry report – the industry is at a critical juncture. It must acquire capacity and technology at an accelerated pace in order to deliver on the project pipeline successfully.

Autodesk’s Construction Project Management Virtual Forum is a can’t-miss event bringing together construction business leaders and project management professionals across the Asia-Pacific region to learn and network. Industry experts from Downer, Soilbuild Construction Group, University of Melbourne and Autodesk will share strategic insights on how to consistently deliver successful, profitable projects.

Back by popular demand, the three-hour free program will unpack practical use cases of digitalising construction workflows. Discover how to can gain efficiencies with better team collaboration and strengthen quality and safety, while using data analytics to improve decision-making for projects.
