Digital Transformation Stemming From a Business Assessment of Construction Industry 4.0

The methods, processes, and tools adopted according to the needs of the transition based on the Industry 4.0 should be based on the level of digitization of the companies, checking and monitoring their digitization over time, and considering the relation within the society. The study presented in this chapter starts from the work of the European community, directed to the assessment of the digital maturity of companies in the context of the European network of digital innovation hubs. Assessment that takes place through the compilation of questionnaires assessing the digital maturity of companies. Starting from what has been developed by the European community, the authors believe it is essential to develop specific focal points according to the peculiarities of the different sectors and in particular considering the construction one. This approach will open a new key to promote the digitalisation of the construction sector that is still lagging compared to the other industrial sectors.
