Some contractors believe the primary purpose of a Project Engineer is to digest information flooding onto a project and divert it to the proper channels—a seemingly indispensable role. But what if technology comes to work so well that the information routing is automatic and the inefficiencies we now battle in our workflows disappear? Will Project Engineers disappear too?I don’t really think so: I have no doubt Project Engineers are here to stay. But I do believe their roles will shift in response to the paperless jobsite movement, if that movement can overcome its own hurdles of inefficiency that currently exist.
