Businesses are increasingly using AI to modernise and transform their operations. But what impact is it having in the construction and engineering sector – and in particular in the resolution of construction disputes?
We asked senior legal advisors and other professionals at a variety of construction and engineering companies around the world how their businesses are engaging with AI in legal transactional work and dispute resolution. Our survey reveals a very mixed picture, displaying both enthusiasm and uncertainty around the use of AI.
Conversely, the primary sources of disputes remain constant year on year: delays, payment issues and disagreements about the scope of work. The deployment of AI to streamline processes and save money will increasingly transform the way this is done. Our surveys shows it is gathering momentum, but its benefits will not be equally distributed, with businesses that are unable or unwilling to leverage this new technology likely to find themselves at a material disadvantage.
