Cloud technology is slowly progressing in the construction sector. It is estimated that by 2020, the cloud market will reach USD 270 billion, with the public cloud market standing at a 44% growth rate. The cloud-based construction software is capable of lowering operational costs, increasing flexibility, and much more. Cloud-based software solutions benefit enterprises in reducing business costs. Additionally, they require low maintenance and act as a one-point solution for storing and managing data within an organization.
Cloud-based construction software is less expensive than other traditional software packages. These solutions offer an application programming interface (API) that allows vendors to offer customized packages to their clients. According to the 2017 survey of the Associated General Contractors of America, it was observed that nearly 87% of the construction contractors are using or planning to use cloud-based construction software. To suppress legacy hardware costs and improve efficiency, contractors are transitioning towards cloud-host systems. Other benefits such as access to real-time data from any location via any number of mobile devices, promoting greater capabilities, and better integration with other software used by contractors are fueling the popularity of cloud-based networks. Thus, the increasing popularity of cloud-based construction management software is expected to drive the growth of the Construction Software Market during the forecast period.
By type, the construction software market has been segmented into project management, financial management, quality and safety, field productivity, and others. According to MRFR analysis, the project management segment is expected to have the largest market share, followed by the financial management segment. The quality and safety segment is expected to exhibit the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Project management in construction is defined as the direction, regulation, and supervision of a project from early development to completion. There is a wide range of construction project types such as commercial, residential, industrial, and heavy civil. Procore Technologies’ Procore Platform, Procore Construction OS, and others offer industry-leading construction project management software. The growth of the project management segment can be attributed to several factors. One of them being the track record of cost overruns and mismanagement in construction projects. The need for accountable and efficient use of resources such as the workforce, raw materials, and time is also favoring the demand for construction project management solutions.
