Whether it's supply chain problems, labor shortages, rising material costs, or handling backlog, builders and design teams are facing a variety of new challenges. Adding to those challenges is the rise of the use of robotics, drones and computers on the jobsite, remote worksites, modular construction methods, and mobile access are dramatically changing the way construction is conducted and creating an entire new area of trends not only for those building but also for the insurance arena. The construction industry is on the brink of major disruption due to the exponential growth of technology. A preview of it occurred during the pandemic when home builders suddenly had to adapt to a new way of working, but the rate of disruption will be faster and more intense going forward.
