The Top Trends for the AEC/O Industry in 2025

In 2024, the AEC/O industry witnessed the next chapter of how it integrates advanced technologies and innovative practices. This set a new direction of travel with respect to how we design, build, and operate within the built environment. In 2025, the pace at which we travel in this new direction will accelerate, thanks to the rapid evolution of AI, Digital Twins and BIM. We’ll see profound and beneficial changes in workflow processes, how we prioritize sustainability as well as more effective and efficient ways of collaborating. To succeed, this will take a change of not just the tools we use each day, but also a willingness to embrace the trends that we believe are set to define the AEC/O sector in 2025. Here, we look more closely at what those trends could mean for you: (more…)

Embracing AI and Boosting Sustainability Across Project Lifecycles

As the CEO of Graphisoft, I have the privilege of leading a company that is deeply involved in the intersection of technology and architecture. As we look toward 2025 and beyond, here are my thoughts on how emerging technologies—particularly AI, BIM, and cloud-based collaboration tools—will significantly extend the capabilities of design teams.

Looking ahead, one of the most exciting shifts I see is the role of AI in architecture. AI can be a game-changer, and we have already seen the industry putting its powerful potential to use. Today, architects can generate images and even preliminary designs before the first line is drawn by hand. AI-assisted tools help architects create optimized concepts in a fraction of the time it would typically take, freeing up time to refine the creative and innovative characteristics of a project. In the near future, capabilities like automatic documentation could augment creative workflows by automating mundane tasks.

As we approach 2025, the Manufacturing and Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industries find themselves navigating an evolving landscape shaped by technological advancements, market dynamics, and societal demands. Here, we explore the key trends and predictions that are poised to redefine these industries, presenting opportunities and challenges in equal measure.

Manufacturing Industry Predictions for 2025

  1. Expansion of Smart Manufacturing
    • The transition to smart manufacturing is accelerating, driven by Industry 4.0 technologies such as IoT, AI, and machine learning. By 2025, we expect a surge in the adoption of real-time monitoring, predictive analytics, and autonomous systems. These tools will enhance productivity, minimize downtime, and optimize energy consumption.
    • For example, digital twins—which are virtual representations of physical systems—will become mainstream. They will enable manufacturers to simulate operations, troubleshoot issues, and streamline workflows, reducing costs and improving efficiency.

AECCafe Industry Predictions for 2025 – DGG

I’m happy and excited to share my industry predictions for 2025, based on our work in various industry consortiums – but also based on what we continuously learn through our network of business partners that are automate their processes through RapidPipeline.

Naturally, AI as a recent megatrend will continue to shape how the industry works and develops. We have seen many of the early LLM based workflows hitting ceilings with regards to outcome as well as scalability – including the need for massive training data, and consuming vast amounts of computing power. However, at the same time, AI based workflows are becoming more refined and sophisticated with the help of new concepts and separation of concerns, for example with the help of multi-agent systems.

For AEC, the other overarching megatrend that will continue to have a strong impact on how things develop is the further development of digital twin technology. Being so much more than just 3D models for visualization, digital twins will continue to enable businesses to streamline their processes, save costs and achieve  more, thanks to linked data across the entire lifecycle of human-made objects – from ideation and construction to maintenance and disassembly. To make this a reality, the main bottleneck will still remain the availability and quality, of 3D digital twin data. To produce high-quality digital twins, processes must be set up accordingly already at the ideation and construction stage. This involves the creation and maintenance of supporting systems like digital material databases, and setting up proper linkage between those systems that support 3D asset creation. At the same time, any existing 3D digital asset data – including 3D design mockups, but also all available CAD data – must be made accessible to relevant downstream applications. Solving these challenges won’t happen overnight, but we will see huge progress in this areas in 2025, and we’re actively working on this from our side with RapidPipeline to make it a reality as well.

These vital aspects, refined AI based workflows and digital twins, must be thought about together to enable the best possible ROI and competitive edge for businesses designing and marketing any kind of human-made products.

On the economic side of things, 2025 will continue to be a rather difficult year for many industries. Therefore, it will accelerate two trends that we currently observe within the digital workflows of many enterprises in AEC and beyond: Streamlining processes and enabling cost savings, on the one hand, will be more important than ever – in other words, achieving more, with less or similar resources. The pressure to innovate, on the other hand, is high as well – outperforming the competition by leveraging the benfits of latest technological megatrends, such as digital twins, is going to be a key differentiator. Both aspects together will lead to an environment where partial automation of established workflows and streamlining of processes with the help of digital tools will thrive, providing teams with the efficiency gains and increased speed in time-to-market that will be critical to succeed in a 2025 environment.
