Samenvatting

In the Dutch construction industry, the demand for advanced information storage and sharing is growing due to the complexity of construction projects. Limitations of traditional methods include lack of transparency and inefficient communication. Blockchain offers a promising solution by enabling decentralized storage and immutable recording of data increasing transparency and efficiency in the construction supply chain. Combining a Common Data Environment with the InterPlanetary File System – decentralized file storage and exchange, and a powerful tool for secure, efficient and reliable data management in construction – can emerge to improve cooperation between parties increasing effectiveness of projects.
