Dubai, UAE – 27 March, 2023 – In a recent guest editorial for Design Middle East, Stephen Taylor, Managing Director of KPS UAE, shared his vision for “Connected Construction.” In his article, Taylor highlights the significant challenges that arise with large construction projects and the potential for a more connected approach to help overcome them.

According to Taylor, operational blind spots with supply chains, labour, budgets, and timelines continue to cost the industry more than necessary, partly due to slow adoption of technology, but equally due to gaps in connectivity. “Even when interior construction companies in UAE do start to use technology, it’s often just a suite of unconnected systems that are not talking to each other,” he writes. “These silos require multiple entries of the same data, and the lack of connection prevents the data from creating a bigger picture.”

Taylor goes on to explain that connected construction technology is transforming interior fit out design and construction companies like KPS. By utilising information modelling, data collection apps, virtual reality, and 3D printing, Taylor believes that “everyone and everything can work smarter.”

As the construction industry continues to evolve, KPS UAE is committed to utilising cutting-edge technology and connectivity to drive innovation and deliver outstanding results.
