Tech-Enabled Startups Redefining India’s Construction Industry

In the vast landscape of India’s construction industry, a new wave of disruption is sweeping through, powered by the innovative prowess of tech-enabled startups. These visionary companies have set their sights on transforming the way buildings are designed, constructed, and managed, leveraging cutting-edge technologies to bring unprecedented efficiency, sustainability, and scalability to the forefront.


The construction industry, known for its old-fashioned operational methods, has historically lacked significant frameworks for data capturing and maintenance activities. However, with the demand for timely project delivery at an all-time high, the global infrastructure market is undergoing a paradigm shift towards reengineered processes and technologies. As reliance on equipment has increased, the necessity for comprehensive frameworks to monitor, maintain, and manage these crucial assets has become necessary. Automation systems are being embraced across various industrial segments, alleviating labor burdens, and driving significant market growth. Unfortunately, India’s infrastructure industry has yet to fully embrace automation, persisting with manual processes and causing the unorganized sector to experience sluggish growth.

Recognizing the need for digital transformation, team NBM&CW embarked on a journey to uncover the pioneers leading this revolution, resulting in insightful interviews with cutting-edge startups such as Buildo.Market, Equip9, Elixia Inc, Pace Robotics, PowerPlay, TappetBox, Tracecost, and Onsite.
