Abstract

The development of digital construction management is an important initiative to promote the digital transformation of the construction industry. But the attention to the regional difference in the development level of digital construction management in China from the industrial level is still relatively scarce. In this paper, the combination assignment method, Dagum Gini coefficient and Kernel density estimation methods are used to explore the regional difference and its dynamic evolution trend of China’s digital construction management development level. The study finds that: the overall development level in China’s construction industry is on the rise, but it is still at a relatively low level. The overall Gini coefficient increases, which is mainly due to uneven development between regions. There are large difference between the eastern region and the other three regions. The interregional Gini coefficient for the central-northeast and central-western regions are all growing at a higher rate.
