Civil engineers have always been pioneers, with a reputation for applying innovation when creating the infrastructure of cities and transport systems which we have all come to rely upon. Yet, when it comes to applying information technology, many companies within the construction industry seem to be lagging far behind companies in other more forward looking industries. Infoculture dispels some of the myths and mysteries that surround the term information technology and provides practical, straightforward advice and guidance on how you can implement and effectively use the new information technologies that are currently available.
