Artificial intelligence is a discipline that is expanding rapidly across practically all sectors, and its applications have been shown to boost worker productivity. Businesses in the construction sector have been sluggish to adopt new technologies and AI systems, making it one of the sectors that has lagged behind in the digital age. Construction projects are special undertakings that are frequently extremely big, complicated, and safety-critical, making it challenging to bring change and necessitating the use of conventional procedures. Construction project planning involves a wide range of expertise areas and several stakeholders, all of which must be in agreement for the project to be successful.
A promising technical development, artificial intelligence is predicted to significantly enhance project management for building projects. Despite these encouraging advantages, AI has not been fully investigated owing to a number of reasons, including its high implementation costs, the requirement for data preparation, the absence of AI techniques, and the lack of experienced employees.
This research, which is a pioneer in this field, evaluates the potential of artificial intelligence to assist project managers and other associated professions in effectively planning and managing construction projects. In order to accomplish this goal, structured online survey questionnaires were used in a mixed method research design to gather both quantitative and qualitative data. This gave researchers an in-depth understanding of the subject and helped them identify the difficulties that professionals and organizations faced, as well as suggested ways to incorporate AI into their workflow.
The research was effective in building a framework for AI specialists to use in order to create future AI solutions for construction project planning. It also proved helpful in understanding the demands of construction project professionals and organizations.
Key words: Artificial Intelligence, Building construction projects, Project management, Safe and Performance.
