It explores the commercial significance of innovation; outlines its role in transforming practice and improving competitiveness; and lists technological and market forces driving the innovation process. The authors explain why some attempts at innovation in construction fail and others succeed and detail the management of change, outlining economic, technical and organisational characteristics which may inhibit change in practice as well as examine management strategies for making change happen"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000462094 650_0 $$aConstruction industry$$xTechnological innovations. 000462094 650_0 $$aCivil engineering$$xTechnological innovations. 000462094 650_0 $$aCompetition. 000462094 655_0 $$aElectronic books 000462094 7001_ $$aGoulding, Jack. 000462094 7001_ $$aZawdie, Girma,$$d1946- 000462094 852__ $$bebk 000462094 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=875738$$zOnline Access 000462094 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:462094$$pGLOBAL_SET 000462094 980__ $$aBIB 000462094 980__ $$aEBOOK 000462094 982__ $$aEbook 000462094 983__ $$aOnline
