The construction industry is at a tipping point. While large companies are already fully committed to digital transformation, much of the sector is lagging behind. There is often a lack of urgency - after all, there are plenty of assignments. But with the renewed Dutch Digitalization Strategy (NDS) under the motto "Accelerating together is the only option," the pressure is now getting stronger. The government is pushing for more digitization, responsible use of AI and working from a single digital base in the cloud.
Getting started is easier than you think
What does this mean concretely for you as a contractor, architect or project manager? Digitization often sounds complex, but the first steps are surprisingly simple. Consider working in the cloud with a single source of truth, where all current project information is readily available to everyone. This not only saves time and prevents errors, but also strengthens cooperation throughout the chain.
AI helps, humans decide
In addition, artificial intelligence is increasingly coming within reach. AI helps to use data, recognize patterns and make better decisions - provided we do this in a responsible way, with the human factor remaining central. Because digitization is not about technology alone: it's about smarter collaboration, creating support and involving your people in the change.
Accelerating together
In his presentation during DigiBouw 2025, Collin van Kooten, Business Developer at NTI CAD & Company, shows how you can already start with small, feasible steps. How you not only improve your own operating results, but at the same time connect with the course set by the government. And especially: how you can move forward faster together as a sector.
