Abstract

Throughout the decades, the construction industry was suffered for its business sustainability, mainly due to its complexity by nature that results in poor productivity, across the industry. This can be improved through implementing of Technology Management the innovative ways, which consists of Knowledge Management, Building Information Modelling, block-chain technology and e-procurement, throughout pre- and post-contract implementation stages that involve the function of Design, Procure, Execution, and Commissioning; as well as applications on the existing building, for the benefits to ease of building maintenance, and life-savings shall there be any disaster. Building Information Modelling not being applied as technology by itself, but also as a platform to improve interactions among stakeholders. This paper aims to emphasize on the external as well as internal factors that influence the business transformation towards Technology Management, and its contribution on construction business sustainability. Particularly, to discuss the benefits and contribution on the electronics-Procurement implementation, the failure factors were also being discussed; then the importance of company’s knowledge culture that creates a knowledge sharing environment for better information sharing and system implementation; lastly, to discuss how innovation approach by integrating Block-Chain Technology and Building Information Modelling enhance the construction company’s competitiveness within the industry, for sustainability grow.
