Each one links to its EU funding record and the partners it works with: a starting list for building a consortium.
Construction works on the building site, whether for civil infrastructure or for buildings, often involve a variety of complex operations apart from the actual assembly of elements. These can include transport and movement of construction products to and around the site; storage of products, materials and other items on site, and their eventual removal; dealing with packaging of products and other consumables related to the construction works; temporary accommodation for workers; temporary utility connections and associated works; planning of works; coordination of trades and operations, including machines as well as human workers. Mistakes and delays in construction works can lead to negative consequences such as risk of accidents, waste, pollution, inefficiency and financial consequences.
Construction works need to be carried out more quickly and efficiently, with less room for error and waste. This could be improved through technology-driven innovations linked to on-site operations and logistical aspects.
Proposals should:
Proposals should include a business case and exploitation strategy, as outlined in the introduction to this Destination.
Proposals may choose to contribute to relevant European standardisation efforts. Proposals should seek to build synergies with relevant other work, for example, EU-funded projects under the New European Bauhaus Facility, or Horizon Europe partnerships including Built4People.

Data Space Technologies can be considered as being applicable in the context of the topic as long as it can be proven that they connect to an existing industry-wide practice and that they are crucial for the enhanced management of a construction site. It should be noted that Data Space Technologies create an interoperable structure, with governance and rules about access and use of data, while in the topic text there is no reference to the infrastructure but rather to applications, such as Digital Twins and BIM, with which the innovation should connect.
