To help businesses better understand these requirements , Jasper was instrumental in the formation of Global Industry Council . “ The GIC was all about bringing together the very biggest companies and leaders in the construction and engineering space to work out what issues were facing our industry and how we could deal with them .

• Standardisation – how do I make sure I have processes that have consistency and a standard way of doing things across the industry ?
• Digital talent – how do you build the right talent for your organisation ?
• Adoption – once you start on a path or a vision around a digital future you then have to drive tech adoption .
• Return on investment – this is the toughest one . How do you show that investment in digitisation is paying off ?
