As the coronavirus spread continues to spur new federal health guidelines advising companies and employees to continue to work remotely, the construction industry faces the challenge of not falling behind on projects underway while ensuring the health of workers.
“The majority of the industry isn’t as prepared for or lacks experience in working remotely,” said Robert Yuen, CEO and co-founder of Monograph, a project management software company for the AEC industry.
Construction companies rely on person-to-person internal interactions, Yuen said, with most virtual responses having been between contractors and clients or other stakeholders.
