AI to Reduce Construction Delays
How AI helps identify and prevent delays on construction projects.
Definition
AI helps reduce construction delays by predicting problems before they occur, optimizing schedules, and accelerating decision-making. AI can analyze historical project data to identify delay patterns, monitor current projects for early warning signs, and recommend interventions. By automating document processing and communication, AI also reduces administrative delays that slow projects down.
In Depth
Construction delays stem from three main sources: document issues (incomplete or conflicting CDs, slow RFI responses, late submittals), resource issues (labor shortages, material delays, equipment unavailability), and site issues (weather, unforeseen conditions, access problems). AI addresses the document-related delays that typically account for the largest share of project delay.
Examples
