DECEMBER 2025CONSTRUCTIONTECHREVIEW.COM6The material management industry is soaring as organizations contend with faster timelines, leaner budgets and increasingly unpredictable supply chains. To keep pace, companies are moving away from fragmented, manual systems toward platforms that can scale, adapt and think ahead.The shift begins with cloud-native infrastructure, which makes material data accessible across projects, sites and teams without the limits of on-premise systems. Building on that foundation, real-time data connectivity links procurement, inventory and operations so decisions are based on current conditions rather than delayed reports. With reliable data in place, advanced analytics turn past performance into forward-looking insight, helping teams anticipate demand and avoid disruption. Automation removes repetitive work from the process, reducing errors and accelerating execution. This edition of Construction Tech Review brings recent developments in AI-powered material management platforms, highlighting how leading solutions are helping organizations gain control, improve visibility and turn material management into a strategic advantage.It features thought leadership from industry experts, including Adam Krob, director of information technology, field audit and process improvement at Boh Bros.
