COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The majority of industry verticals and the world economy were significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. During the lockdown phase of the COVID-19 pandemic, the market for IoT in construction has been significantly impacted. Decreased sales of new construction robots, corresponding aftermarket services, and restrictions on building operations led to the decline. The COVID-19 pandemic profoundly affected the construction, industrial, hotel, and tourism industries. This led to a decline in the output of construction equipment, which impacted the market for IoT in construction.Market Growth Factors
Rising productivity and safety provided by IoT on construction sites
The construction sector can benefit greatly from IoT. The advantages of the technology have already been established in the manufacturing, healthcare, automotive, and other sectors where systems management and automation are essential. With its multiple uses, loT has the ability to enhance security and boost output on building sites. Systems & devices that are connected to one another can be synced to a central server for easier monitoring. As a result, supervisors may accomplish their duties quickly and are notified of all the elements of a project. These benefits offered by IoT adoption in construction sector are supporting market growth.Rising adoption of construction robotics offering growth prospects
Construction robotics is the practice of carrying out construction tasks automatically with the aid of construction robots or automated construction machinery. It is employed in tasks including constructing and destroying infrastructures for homes, businesses, and industries. Construction tasks now involve less or no human interaction due to construction robotics. Although robotics has been employed in the construction industry for some time, very few commercial robots are still being deployed there. As a result, the market share for IoT in construction is expected to increase as demand for robotics in construction rises.Market Restraining Factors
More dependence on conventional methods
In the construction industry, digitization is lesser than in other industries. The construction industry experiences low productivity due to a lack of digitization. Large-scale building projects frequently conclude later than originally planned and incur additional costs, reducing contractors' financial returns. Since most of the work is done on paper, there's not much coordination between the office and the field regarding project planning. This, in turn, leads to inefficient management of the supply chain. This disparity may present a problem for companies with a foothold in the market.
