Accenture launches Construct to streamline global infrastructure project delivery
Accenture has created a new business called Accenture Construct.
It will help organisations build large projects such as airports, power grids and data centres.
These projects often involve many separate companies, which can make responsibilities unclear.
Accenture Construct aims to give owners one main partner throughout a project.
It will use shared data so everyone can see the same project information.
Artificial intelligence will help teams spot problems earlier and make better decisions.
The business will serve both private and public sector clients around the world.
Accenture says the market for these services could reach $348 billion by 2030.
Accenture launched Accenture Construct to help owners plan, deliver and optimise major infrastructure and capital projects.
The new business combines Accenture’s capital projects expertise across advisory, engineering, project delivery and technology services.
Accenture Construct will use shared project data and AI-enabled workflows to identify risks earlier and improve decisions.
Its target markets include data centres, utilities, telecommunications, transportation, civic infrastructure, advanced manufacturing and process industries.
The integrated owner-side capital project services market is projected to grow from $260 billion to $348 billion by 2030.

Chair and Chief Executive Officer of Accenture
“Global demand for critical infrastructure capital programs is accelerating at the same time as AI is fundamentally changing how projects are planned, delivered and operated.

Chief Executive Officer of Accenture Construct
“Capital projects haven’t lacked expertise; they’ve lacked alignment on shared success outcomes. Owners assemble exceptional teams, but accountability is often dispersed across the delivery ecosystem. Accenture Construct brings those capabilities together under one accountable partner, combining deep delivery expertise with AI and data to help owners make better decisions, reduce uncertainty and deliver better outcomes.”
