Digital Transformation of the Ukrainian Construction Industry: Current Challenges and Prospects for Utilizing Global Experience

Анотація

The article is dedicated to analyzing the current state and prospects of digital transformation in the construction industry of Ukraine in the context of global trends. The three-stage model of digital transformation proposed by international researchers is considered, and the key problems hindering the digitalization of the Ukrainian construction sector are identified, including significant resource intensity, management inefficiency, outdated regulatory framework, high energy consumption, and object accident rate. The study aims to examine the problems and prospects of using international experience to accelerate the digitalization of the construction industry in Ukraine. The article employs methods such as analysis, synthesis, comparison, generalization, tabular, schematic, and logical methods. An overview of key digital technologies transforming the global construction industry is presented, such as BIM, IoT, artificial intelligence, automation, cloud computing, AR/VR, digital twins, drones, and 3D printing. The experience of leading countries in construction digital transformation (USA, Finland, Singapore, Denmark) is analyzed based on the Network Readiness Index (NRI) and the IMD World Digital Competitiveness Ranking. A low level of digital readiness in Ukraine is revealed, particularly in the technological component and the absence from global rankings. The first steps of Ukraine in the implementation of digital technologies are considered, including the creation of the Unified State Electronic System in the field of construction (ЄДЕССБ) and the fragmented use of BIM, digital twins, IoT, robotics, AR/VR, and 3D printing. The main factors hindering the digitalization of the construction industry in Ukraine are identified: technological backwardness, insufficient investment, staff shortage, and uncertainty in regulatory and legal regulation. Considering the urgent need for the reconstruction of Ukraine, a roadmap for the digital transformation of the construction industry for 2025-2030 is proposed.
