Methodology of the theory of change management in the implementation of digital transformation of construction: problems and prospects

Abstract

The need for an innovative digital transformation of the construction industry is beyond doubt. However, it is fraught with a number of objective constraints, which requires the development of appropriate holistic science-based approaches and an effective practical methodology. Based on the systematization of the specifics of digitalization of the construction industry, analysis of the achieved level of innovative digital development, study of existing experience and institutional trends, the authors postulated a change management methodology as one of the key conceptual approaches to effective planning and management of digital transformation of construction. The life cycle of changes was modified on the basis of the design-process approach, and the corresponding practical assessment was carried out using the example of the implementation of information modeling technology in construction.
