Digital Construction Week 2025

More than 1,500 delegates attended our Innovation Stage to hear about the latest digital developments in the built environment

The Innovation Stage, which we proudly sponsored, proved a big draw for delegates at last week's Digital Construction Week.

Over 1,500 visitors visited our stage, one of nine separate platforms at the conference which attracted an estimated 20,000 attendees over the two days.

Our digital construction team shared industry-leading insights, best practices and solutions at what is the largest annual industry digital conference for the built environment.

Delegates included representatives from both the private and public sectors, consultants and software solution providers.
 
Our team gave two presentations and hosted a panel discussion as part of the event.

Senior Digital Construction Managers, Vaisakh Kirshnadas and Chad Bedard, used the Innovation Stage to discuss how we are optimizing construction data reporting and material passport delivery.

Supported by Will Townsend, Senior Sustainability Manager, they covered:

  • Applying our digital construction strategy and best practices to improve project delivery
  • Harnessing data-driven digital reporting to manage and report key project data
  • Understanding how material passports for reusing materials is supporting clients’ sustainability agendas and informing future projects

 

On the Transformation Hub stage, Director of Digital Construction, Nick Leach, joined industry peers to discuss driving digital innovation and efficiency. Highlights included the fundamental importance of culture and training to any digital transformation, understanding its value and empowering individuals to embrace the adoption process.

On the second day, back on the Innovation Stage, Senior Digital Construction Manager, Cristina Ruiz Nolasco, and Digital Construction Manager, Jade Booth, spoke about how we are enhancing heritage preservation with digital techniques. They discussed some of our methodologies around gathering and managing historical asset data, preserving record keeping and effective point cloud management.

We were able to share numerous examples of how our projects have embraced digital technology and made a tangible difference to consistency, efficiency and sustainability, putting us at the forefront of the digital built environment space.
