Data Intensity

The engineering services industry is complex and heavily relies on specialized human expertise, making it less amenable to complete AI automation. Regulatory and compliance requirements pose moderate barriers to AI adoption. Significant investments in both physical and digital infrastructures are needed, though there are substantial data and technological integration opportunities. The highly skilled workforce also limits the industry's susceptibility to AI displacement.
