About
Ayanda Boya is a rising scholar at the forefront of construction technology, whose work critically examines the barriers to digital transformation in the built environment. In their landmark 2023 paper, "Bottlenecks to the Implementation of Automation and Robotics in the Construction Industry," Boya identifies and analyzes the key technical, economic, and organizational hurdles that slow the adoption of advanced automation on construction sites. This research, already garnering 5 citations in a short time, provides a foundational framework for both industry practitioners and policymakers seeking to accelerate the integration of robotics into construction workflows. By mapping these bottlenecks—from high capital costs to workforce skill gaps—Boya offers actionable insights that bridge the gap between theoretical automation potential and real-world implementation. Their work is particularly valuable for students and researchers exploring the intersection of civil engineering, project management, and emerging technologies. As the construction sector increasingly turns to automation to address productivity and labor challenges, Boya’s contributions are positioning them as a key voice in shaping a more efficient, technologically integrated future for the industry.
