BuildSTACK: Collaboration Platform to Improve the world’s largest and poorest performing industry, the Construction Industry

The construction industry is the largest industry in the world, and the poorest-performing. Approaches and practices have not changed appreciably in 200 years; the industry is ripe for a transformation. The industry is currently very fragmented and siloed, as a result of the need to manage significant risks, in complex projects, in a world of low profit margins. A key solution is to provide a platform to connect the community together: owners, suppliers, engineering and construction companies, regulators, NGOs, investors. Creating the BuildSTACK platform will drive the collaboration for this connection.
