IoT in Construction Market size was valued at USD 11.58 billion in 2023 and is set to exceed USD 82.46 billion by 2036, registering over 16.3% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2024-2036. In the year 2024, the industry size of IoT in construction is evaluated at USD 13.09 billion.
The key factors expected to drive the growth of the market include safety & security concerns, increase in the productivity at construction site along with a significant demand for IoT in construction. In order to overcome challenges related to safety and theft at the construction site, human security agents are not sufficient to monitor the huge construction sites. With the help of IoT, the sensors will easily notify the current location of the lost material and it will update the risks associated with the work and the workers. Further, with real time IoT data, every worker will get updated about the job site issues and will be able to prevent the situations that can lead to an incident.
Growth Drivers
Rise in the Productivity and Maintenance at Construction Sites
In construction sector, it is mandatory to meet the deadlines and targets, in order to avoid budget increase. Internet of things leaves people with less labour work and enables more efficiency. Further, through IoT the adequate supply of materials is ensured as the supply unit is fitted with a suitable sensor which automatically decides the quantity and make orders automatically for the smoothness of the project.
In addition, it is important to manage the fuel and power consumption, as inactive management of them will impact the overall cost of the project. IoT gives real time information about the status of every asset, refuelling of the equipments and schedules of maintenance. Moreover, sensors can be used to monitor the issues regarding damage along with the expiration of the materials. These factors, allow the clients to focus on their core business and thus, driving the growth of the market over the forecast period.
Challenges
High Initial Cost of Implementing IOT in Construction Market
The price of Internet of Things is usually higher than the initial hardware and software implementation. In addition, with the greater functionality of IoT, companies have to pay higher price. For an IoT solution, vast amount of data is generated and invoicing of this data will cost to metered billing, thus affecting the pricing model. Moreover, hardware is most important parameter that decides the cost of production and more complex is the technology; more will be the cost of implementation. Therefore, high cost of IoT is predicted to act as a restraint towards the growth of market over the forecast period.
