A recent survey conducted by Topcon Positioning Systems among 1,000 decision-makers in European construction firms revealed that 77 percent of respondents consider machine control to be a crucial factor in attracting workers. However, despite its perceived importance, the use of machine control on construction projects across Europe remains limited.
According to the survey, machine control is currently employed in only 34 percent of construction projects on average, with the majority of respondents (72 percent) using the technology on less than half of their projects. Only 1 percent of respondents reported using machine control without exception.
The survey respondents identified several barriers to the wider adoption of machine control in the construction industry. The top barriers included:
These survey findings highlight the need for greater awareness, support, and education regarding the benefits of machine control technology in the construction industry. Addressing the identified barriers, such as government initiatives, senior-level buy-in, and training resources, can help promote the wider adoption of machine control and close the skills gap in the European construction sector.
