The challenge of digital transformation in the construction and engineering sector is understandable - typical construction projects involve numerous independent subcontractors and suppliers with little incentive to embrace new methods; projects vary greatly so it's often difficult to make solutions repeatable; and the remote nature of some construction projects makes investment in technology even more challenging.

However, the construction industry is one of the major powerhouses of the UK economy, accounting for 6% of its national economy and employing 2.4 million workers. Construction and engineering is crucial to the economy and construction firms looking to capitalise on the opportunity are looking at digital transformation. We build transformational digital solutions for clients including Laing O'Rourke, Octavius and The Crown Estate that enables them to use new, pioneering technologies to drive their productivity and profitability.

We are proud to share the learnings and successes from our Construction and Engineering clients including Laing O’Rourke, Osborne, Mace and Sisk, after implementing Atlas.

Atlas is an all-in-one digital workplace for knowledge, communication and collaboration that is built on and for Microsoft 365. We have built Atlas to solve problems that these industries experience all too often: too many digital tools, too many silos, too much noise and too much stuff that is hard to find.

Through our engagement with these industry leaders, we have developed a deep sensitivity to the unique challenges these industries face and have enhanced Atlas as an exact match to the requirements at hand.
