AECCafe Industry Predictions for 2025 – Chaos

Monday, January 20th, 2025

Vladimir Koylazov

In 2025, the AEC industry will see the culmination of several trends that have been building over the past few years.

To start, architects and designers will see huge improvements around more efficient building techniques. For decades, they have been striving to improve efficiency, but the process has been slow on the design side, as designers need to spend time fully realizing their creations, then send them off for a full energy analysis. It’s a slow, iterative process that can require multiple rounds of analysis, all of which take time and money.

These inefficiencies are improving. Last year, Chaos launched Enscape Impact, a tool that can determine the energy efficiency of a building during the initial design phase. Designers receive energy efficiency data they need as part of their creative stage and have the power and freedom to make changes that can directly impact the project’s overall energy efficiency. This leads to more cost-effective projects and more energy efficient buildings, and will ultimately help to address escalating concern over sustainability.

I predict that the need to build more sustainable, future-proof cities will be one of the most talked about trends in the coming year and could help the industry move in new directions. There will be a continued push to make cities more resilient and climate friendly through improvements to construction and climate-proofing new and existing builds. Changes to improve sustainability will be gradual, but urgency will build as temperatures continue to rise and natural disasters cause devastation around the world. Tools that can help are on the way, and tech companies, including Chaos, are focusing heavily on the need. As the archviz community unites around the evolving needs, tools will become more readily available.

Engineering Workflow and Document Management Industry Trends for 2025

The future of engineering document and workflow management in 2025 is expected to be shaped by advancements in several key areas, driven by technological innovations and evolving business needs.  The global document management market is predicted to grow to $14.29 billion by 2029, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.5% from 2024 to 2029. The workflow automation market, which overlaps with document management, is valued at USD 14.99 billion and is projected to reach USD 71.03 Billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 23.68% from 2024 to 2031.

The combined market for both document management and workflow automation is expected to show rapid expansion as businesses increasingly digitize, and automate their operations.  Due to increasing digital transformation initiatives, a shift to cloud-based solutions and the rise of automation and AI technologies. Here are a few significant trends and developments that will likely define the industry in the coming years.
