To achieve a more innovative and digital construction supported by SME-friendly standards, we need to:
Stabilise and enhance the comprehensibility of the EUtechnical regulatory framework, by democratising and simplifying concepts and standards through the direct involvement of SME representatives.
Make sure that SMEs are present in European standardisation, with access to all relevant technical arenas through appropriate funding and technical support.
Bear in mind that standardisation is a key factor in theEU’s competitiveness when standards take the needs of SMEs as the norm.
Bridge the gap between construction SMEs and a fast- paced innovation and research community, by promoting equal access to technology, technology neutrality and fair data management.
Guarantee a gradual digital transition ensuring the accessibility, interoperability, and coherence of digital tools that bring direct added value to SME worksites.
Foster a human-centric and collaborative approach complementing construction know-how when developing robotics, automation, smart technology, or artificial intelligence.
