Abstract: Summary: Introduction: The traditional construction industry has historically been, in the broadest sense, a supply industry that merely reacted to changes in the market. As a result of this supply and demand mindset, there has been a stagnation in real construction volume, a decrease in the construction sector's share of gross value added, and associated job losses. Due to clear trends towards increased competition, there is an increasing expectation for a comprehensive system service that, in addition to the actual construction performance, includes services related to the object to be realized. Consequently, entrepreneurs must respond to the constantly changing requirements.
