Abstract
The construction industry, which constitutes a significant portion of global GDP (Gross Domestic Product), profoundly impacts many countries' economies. Global construction spending is projected to reach $14 trillion by 2025. However, the industry faces challenges such as low productivity and quality issues. The digital supply chain and related technologies, such as Building Information Modeling (BIM), blockchain, and the Internet of Things (IoT), can help streamline processes and address these problems. This study aims to identify and analyze the critical components of the digital supply chain in Iran's construction industry and determine the causal relationships between them. The Meta-synthesis Method and Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) are employed to achieve this. The research results identify key components and their relationships, which can contribute to improving the quality and efficiency of the construction supply chain, as well as accelerating the digitalization process in the industry.
