Construction Digital Maturity Assessment

Where does your firm actually stand on digital construction?

Eleven questions, six minutes. Built from a decade of construction estimating practice — covers BOQ workflow, BIM/CAD integration, cost data, validation, collaboration and open standards. You'll get a per-dimension band, peer benchmark and a prioritised next-step plan. No sign-up. No data leaves your browser unless you choose to share.

Foundation firms still email Excel BoQs and re‑measure on every model revision. Leader firms bind takeoff, BOQ and validation into one continuous workflow with full audit trail. Most firms land in Developing or Established — and that's where the biggest gains live.

Q1
For a typical mid-size project, how do you produce a Bill of Quantities?
Estimating
Q2
When unit rates change (material price hike, new subbie quote, regional shift) — how do those updates propagate to in-flight projects?
Estimating
Q3
When you receive a 3D model (Revit, IFC, ArchiCAD, Allplan, Tekla) — how do quantities get from the model into the BOQ?
BIM & CAD
Q4
CAD format reality — across projects you see DWG, DGN, RVT, IFC, sketches, photos. How is the variety handled?
BIM & CAD
Q5
Where do your unit rates come from on a fresh tender?
Cost data
Q6
For regional / inflation / market-volatility adjustments — how do you handle that on a multi-region or long-duration project?
Cost data
Q7
How do you verify that a finished BOQ meets the relevant compliance standard (DIN 276, GAEB X83, NRM 1/2, MasterFormat, ÖNORM B 2063, DPGF, BC3)?
Validation
Q8
When you find an estimating error after the bid is in (or worse, after award) — how do you prevent the same class of error next time?
Validation
Q9
How do you share BOQ updates with the wider project team (PMs, client, QS, subcontractors)?
Collaboration
Q10
A stakeholder asks for a cost rollup by floor / system / trade / cost group on Tuesday morning — how fast can you turn it around?
Reporting
Q11
If your current estimating / ERP vendor went out of business tomorrow, what's your migration path?

About the bands. The five bands are a self-assessment rubric, not a population benchmark — we don't publish industry-wide percentages because we don't have honest data to back them. The score reflects only what you answered today; the value is in the per-dimension breakdown, not the label.

Time to take it. ~5 minutes for the 11 questions, ~10 minutes if you read the rationale on each option. Re-take it every 6 months — the per-dimension deltas are usually more interesting than the band itself.

What to do next. Pick the two lowest dimensions from the breakdown and treat them as next quarter's focus. Most firms move one band on a single dimension within 12–18 months when they pick a concrete initiative (e.g. "switch BOQ from Excel to a structured tool" rather than "improve digital maturity").
