Is your work in construction automation leading us to the end of humanity?.We don’t believe in the automation of everything.
We believe that there is and will always be a place for human intervention – a place for people to apply their design, construction and engineering know-how – it’s just about taking the tedious repetitive tasks away from humans and getting them to do the bits they’re good at.
And that includes solving the parts that are not worth automating or that are hardest to automate.Intimately linked, still early in its industrialisation but a few stages ahead of smart-technology, is automation and digitisation.
Certainly, for automation, there is more confidence and immediate view about the tangible benefits that it could bring.. ‘Automating out’ routine work can have a significant impact on cost where there is the scale to support the investment.Routine laboratory work takes scientists away from research thinking and potentially is a turn-off to those considering a career in laboratories.
However, this is not a simple path.It requires a change in the skill sets required in laboratories: scientists who develop skills in equipment engineering and coding or hardware and software engineers who develop skills in science.
