The wide gap between the Tech industry and the Construction industry is really no big surprise considering the fact that investors have for at least 2 decades been focused on the more glamorous high tech stocks with faster and more lucrative turnarounds in ROI, compared to the construction industry stocks which have up until the past 2 years have shown modest gains.
Based on the "Investment Decision Tree" (IDT) the research results are encouraging for potential applications and novel innovations knowing that because of the slowness of the construction industry to adopt innovation there is now more synergy. The IDT shows encouraging trends at 93% saying yes for needing CR R&D—meaning that NOW is strategically a great time to invest in the construction industry.

The present inertia generated from Construction 4.0 has investors looking for innovative “investments in the robot that have to break even in 3 years to make it worthwhile.” (Parikh, 2021) With the crippling lack of skilled Human Capital (HC), “CR’s make good economic sense.
Some journeyman carpenter is not worth $95/hr and they give you lip and end up screwing up the job anyway, so CR's are absolutely the future.” (Oliver, 2021) There is a “Blue Ocean market which is largely untapped, a big opportunity in this space, and there will be much more automation in the construction market so that early adopters will have an edge.” (Waters, 2021) (W. Chan Kim, 2014)
“As technology advances there will be further refining of the product and the robotics used to build it--get used to the upheaval.” (I3, 2021)
Like the explosion of AI in the 1960s because of the Space industry “R&D in the construction industry could net innovation that could apply to other business sectors.” (Robertson, 2021) “
The timing for CR’s could not be better, “right now in the construction arena its just beyond the cutting edge and its an obvious thing for us to target--the construction industry will need to like the idea too.” (Henshaw, 2021)
