Construcciones Yamaro: Software playbook helps construction firms drive digital strategy
As construction businesses across Australia face increasing pressure to modernise, a new software playbook is helping organisations assess their digital readiness and align technology with operational goals.
The Construction Software Playbook: How to Assess, Compare, and Choose with Confidence, released by construction technology provider Simpel, offers a clear lens through which organisations can examine digital options, clarify priorities and prepare for scalable growth.
Interest in construction technology is growing, but adoption still varies widely.
“We continue to see companies relying on paper, spreadsheets and disconnected apps – even when it’s slowing them down,” says Simpel CEO Kurt Robinson. “This playbook helps them pause, assess what’s really needed, and make better choices about where to invest.”
A core message is the importance of aligning technology investments with operational needs – particularly the 95 per cent of project teams who rely on day-to-day systems. Rather than overinvesting in niche tools used by a few, the playbook urges organisations to prioritise platforms that support the broader workforce, improving usability, compliance and scalability.

Based on insights from more than 200 surveyed construction organisations, the guide introduces a six-stage Digital Maturity Ladder that reflects the non-linear nature of transformation. The framework is intended as a roadmap, not a rulebook.
“Digital transformation isn’t about buying more software. It’s about building an operational foundation that supports your entire delivery team,” says Robinson. “From document control to safety, quality and site access – when core operations are connected, you’re not just gathering data, you’re enabling faster decisions, stronger compliance and more efficient project delivery.”
The guide also includes a checklist for evaluating digital pathways, a side-by-side comparison of point solutions and unified platforms, and practical guidance for navigating change.
In a rapidly evolving industry where efficiency and oversight are critical, the playbook – available here – supports organisations in rethinking their digital foundations and modernising how they plan, deliver and manage projects.
