By 2013, smart city construction had become a movement of urban development resulting in 193 approved pilot projects in the country. IBM’s proposition of smarter cities resulted in the government approval of USD 599 billion investment in infrastructure and social welfare.
 

Increasing spending to improve residential, commercial, and industrial infrastructure along with aim for energy conservation initiatives should drive civil engineering market growth. Moreover, non-residential and institutional sector expansion owing to improved government & state finances have fueled industry expansion. According to ASCE, the U.S. non-residential construction registered 12.4% growth owing to increase in public funding and reduction in steel, iron, copper, and natural gas prices in 2015.
 

Stringent regulations related to safety and prevention of potential risks and hazards will continue to draw in more customer spending. Regulatory amendments in the laws and standards for building access, pool fences & safety laws, plumbing, sustainable housing, fire safety, industrial, agricultural buildings, and workshops would support civil engineering market growth.
 

Key players in the industry are progressively investing in innovative solutions for increased efficiency, cost optimization and revenue gains. These construction companies’ investment plans reveal an investment of around 5% of the annual profits in digital solutions over the forecast timeframe for gaining a competitive edge over the competitors. Customer satisfaction is driving new initiatives in most organizations and appropriate instrumentation and automation in this industry.
 

Adopting Building Information Modeling systems (BIM) for automating designing & engineering efforts and providing important information for site workers from distant design centers are among the most advanced ways to curb expenditure.
 

Stringent and time-consuming procedures in the tender procurement, such as administrative approval, delayed payments to the contractors along with existing corruption levels in different regional segments, are projected to pose a major threat. Longer projects duration, improper estimations and increased infrastructure cost may affect civil engineering market price trend.
