The Digital Transformation through Leaders project brings together two groups of partners; Expert Partners and Industry Partners.
Expert Partners provide collaborative expert support as required to Industry Partners, host events and work with us to help us develop training courses and online tools. Our Expert Partners range from small technology companies to global leaders in their field and between them bring a wealth of experience and connections from other industries.
Industry Partners are the beneficiaries of the funded products, services and tools. Their role will be to help us to engage the supply chain, tailor the project deliverables to best meet the needs of companies with similar profiles and to share the learnings. Industry Partners are construction companies, membership organisations such as training companies and suppliers in the civil engineering supply chain.
Expert and Industry Partners work together to run pilot projects and produce case studies to test and demonstrate the benefits of different digital tools for solving specific problems in clearly defined contexts.
The project facilitates collaboration between partners which may lead to the development and testing of new solutions. All partners are committed to working together to help facilitate rapid digital progress across the industry.

“Synergie Training has been providing digital skills training for building and infrastructure professionals for many years. We have identified a lack of commitment from senior management teams to implementing digital solutions as a significant barrier to the widespread adoption of digital solutions in the Scottish construction industry. We are therefore delighted to be involved in this project that seeks to address such barriers.”
