  • Abstract:
  • The construction industry is going through a major transformation, thanks to the rise of modern technologies like Building Information Modelling (BIM), the Internet of Things (IoT), Big Data, Machine Learning, and Blockchain. For quantity surveyors—key players in any construction project—this shift means adapting to a new, tech-driven landscape. This research set out to explore how quantity surveyors perceive these emerging technologies and how these changes are impacting their roles. To get a well-rounded view, the study used a mixed-method approach, gathering insights through both semi-structured interviews and questionnaires. The data was then analysed using manual content analysis and the Relative Importance Index (RII). The results were clear: every smart construction concept identified in the study is already making a noticeable impact on the quantity surveying profession. Among them, BIM stood out as having the most significant influence. The findings also highlight an urgent need for professionals in this field to upskill and keep pace with these rapid technological developments. To support this, the research recommends that industry players—including companies, professionals, and academic institutions—actively promote learning and development. This can be achieved through Continuous Professional Development (CPD) initiatives like workshops, webinars, training programs, and formal education focused on modern technologies. Ultimately, this study aims to serve as a practical guide for stakeholders, encouraging them to embrace innovation and take proactive steps toward integrating technology into the traditionally grounded world of quantity surveying.
