Balfour Beatty teams from the Pacific Northwest to the East Coast are leveraging leading-edge technologies like Touchplan – in concert with their foundational skillsets in lean construction – to deliver projects as efficiently and reliably as possible. In a market that is experiencing unprecedented supply chain disruptions and labor shortages, Balfour Beatty is boosting our effectiveness by embracing and investing in tech-enabled jobsite planning.

In the construction industry, the use of technology is never one-size-fits-all. And while many contractors showcase the benefits of innovative tools and practices on large-scale projects due to their scale or inherent complexity, Balfour Beatty’s Texas team is proving how impactful an investment in leading-edge technologies like OpenSpace can be on smaller projects completed within vastly tighter timelines.

Balfour Beatty continuously invests in technology to make projects safer, faster and more cost-efficient while delivering the highest quality. However, what if the largest advancement in the built environment in the last one hundred years is based on one of the oldest construction materials ̶ wood? Mass timber construction is on a trajectory for significant growth over the next ten years, and Balfour Beatty experts are collaborating with owners, architects, engineers and suppliers to maximize the advantages and opportunities of this expanding delivery type.

Public-Private Partnerships (P3) have financed public projects throughout history, and today P3 is widely used around the globe. Although the use of P3 in the U.S. has advanced at a slower pace than in other countries, the rising cost of maintaining and operating public assets which increasingly includes aging infrastructure has accelerated the growth of this delivery model over the past ten years. In 2013, global insurance leader AIG declared the U.S. “The world’s largest emerging P3 market.”

In the past year, construction owners have increasingly felt the impacts of the highest rates of inflation since 2008. While the reasons for the current inflationary period are complicated and multifaceted—stemming from tariffs, the coronavirus pandemic, global supply chain disruption, instability in the financial markets, an influx of consumer spending, government stimulus and more—construction is inarguably one of the hardest hit sectors.
