Investigating the Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Construction Project Management

Abstract: The construction industry is undergoing a transformative shift through the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies, particularly in project management. This study investigates the current and potential applications of AI in construction project management, focusing on areas such as planning and scheduling, risk assessment, cost estimation, resource allocation, and real-time decision-making. By reviewing recent literature, case studies, and industry reports, the research highlights how AI-driven tools—such as machine learning algorithms, predictive analytics, and autonomous systems—enhance project efficiency, accuracy, and productivity. The findings reveal both the benefits and challenges of AI adoption, including issues related to data quality, workforce adaptability, and implementation costs. This study concludes with recommendations for construction firms aiming to leverage AI for improved project outcomes and a roadmap for future research directions in this evolving field
