Abstract

We produced Digitisation for construction product manufacturers - a plain language guide to inspire and guide decision makers in manufacturing, journey towards a digital future. We are at the beginning of a transformational journey in the construction industry and manufacturers are expected to play their part. There is no need to wait to digitise your product information. If you are waiting for the right time to act, there is no time like the present.
At UK Construction Week in 2021 we asked members of the editorial board as well as other experts what other organisations or groups that manufacturers should be engaging with and why. Watch the interview to learn more and download the guide for free at theiet.org/product-manufacturers
