As principais barreiras para implementação de tecnologias digitais na construção civil no Brasil: uma revisão da literatura

Abstract

Digitalization has transformed many sectors of the economy, and in the construction industry this change is taking shape with the adoption of technologies known as Construction 4.0. Despite the potential of these innovations to improve the sector's efficiency and competitiveness, their implementation in Brazil still faces significant challenges. This study aims to identify the main barriers to the implementation of digital technologies in construction in Brazil, through a systematic review of the literature. The research used the PRISMA protocol to select and analyze the studies, considering only national publications. The results show that the main barriers faced by the sector are financial, formational, political, cultural and infrastructural - hardware and software -, reflecting characteristics common to developing countries. The research also highlights the lack of effective public policies aimed at digital transformation in the Brazilian construction sector, as well as the need for investment in professional formation and incentives for innovation. Thus, this study contributes to the advancement of knowledge in the area of Construction 4.0 by systematizing the difficulties encountered and providing practical implications for the development of strategies more in line with the national reality in order to overcome the barriers encountered.
