The construction sector faces tough challenges: rising costs, staff shortages and stricter sustainability requirements. Digitalization is not a luxury, but a necessity. At DigiBouw, AFAS Software shows how overview, simplicity and cooperation form the basis for a future-proof construction.
'Many construction companies realize they need to change, but struggle with the question: where do you start?' says Mark Hoofd, sales manager Construction at AFAS. 'Our answer: start with overview. Only when processes are clear can you improve, automate and innovate. We see that companies that use technology intelligently not only work more efficiently, but also become more agile.'
AFAS supports construction companies with one integrated system for projects, HRM and finance, among others. Fewer separate systems, fewer errors and more room for focus on quality on the construction site.
Digitization, however, is not just about software. 'We believe that digital transformation only really succeeds if you dare to rethink processes, include employees and use technology as an amplifier. That is why we focus on simplicity, integration and ease of use,' said Head. An increasingly important role is played by AI. 'AI helps companies manage more proactively. Not by replacing people, but by supporting them better.'
That it works is proven by practice. Customers such as Dijkhof Bouw, De Nijs and Burgland Bouw already digitized their processes dramatically. 'We started working much more efficiently, with a big time saving as a result,' says Kees Lokhorst, controller at De Nijs.
