About
Adeyemi James Dada is a leading researcher in construction management and technology adoption, with a particular focus on the challenges facing developing economies. His work critically examines the barriers to implementing advanced technologies, such as robotics, in the construction sector—a field where automation lags behind other industries. In his highly influential 2021 paper, "Modeling the robotics implementation barriers for construction projects in developing countries," Dada systematically identified and evaluated the key obstacles—ranging from high costs and lack of skilled labor to inadequate infrastructure and policy gaps—that hinder robotics adoption. Garnering 29 citations, this study has become a foundational reference for scholars and practitioners seeking to understand the socio-technical constraints in emerging markets. Dada’s research is notable for its practical, stakeholder-engaged methodology, which combines literature review with survey data from construction professionals. By mapping these barriers, he provides a clear roadmap for policymakers and industry leaders to accelerate technological transformation. His work is essential reading for anyone interested in modernizing construction practices in resource-constrained environments.
