Digitization Coming to the Fore in Construction

by Mike Hunter

Arcadis, a leading global design and consultancy firm for natural and built assets, recently added Justin Wright to its global IT leadership team to oversee regional IT operations while defining and implementing a progressive digital strategy for the firm and its clients. “Arcadis has prioritized technology investment as a key part of its ‘Creating a Sustainable Future’ strategy,” says Joachim Ebert, CEO of Arcadis North America.

“Much of what were considered ideas just 10 years ago is now reality. Digital disruption is all around, and businesses must digitize and modernize to stay ahead. Drones are monitoring assets; building information modeling is used to design infrastructure; and sensors are being used to monitor sea levels, environmental conditions, construction sites, and more in real-time,” says Wright, who brings 20 years of expertise delivering innovative, technology-based solutions for companies and clients across multiple geographies and industry sectors. “These are exciting times, and I look forward to growing our portfolio of technological solutions for our clients.”
