Construction's Digital Lag Threatens Data Center Boom

Revizto has published a global whitepaper and the 2025 Digital Design & Construction Report warning that the construction sector’s reliance on static tools risks delaying AI-driven data center delivery.

• Main announcement/action: Revizto published a whitepaper titled “The Infrastructure Behind Innovation” and a 2025 report showing 27% of global AECO professionals still use email, spreadsheets, and PDFs as primary tools; the report highlights that some data center projects move from concept to full design in as little as ten weeks. Key figures cited include a projected US $4 trillion global data center market by 2030 and tech-giant spending of over $300 billion this year.
• Background and details: The report surveyed over 2,000 industry leaders, finding 63% closely follow AI/automation (peaking at 73% in the US) and 26% rank tech adoption as their top business challenge (33% in the US). The article references external market projections that annual data center capex could surpass US $1 trillion by 2029 (Dell’Oro) and cites Knight Frank on the US $4 trillion 2030 projection.
