“…And then we do require the vendors to support us in, in terms of security hardening for the platform itself". The finding is not surprising and corroborates a systematic review by Elgh-dban et al [27] who stated that vendor support is the most prominent factor that positively affects the adoption of any advanced IT technologies. In addition, the reliance on third-party open-source software or tools emerges as an ongoing risk to the telecommunication providers if the open-source software development is stopped or discontinued in the future.…”

The telecommunication industry is the leading industry in big data trends as this industry has the most capable infrastructure for big data. However, the adoption of big data in telecommunication services also raises important security and privacy challenges due to the high volume, velocity, and variety of big data characteristics. To address the issue, this study shed light on the security and privacy challenges of big data adoption in the telecommunication industry. This study focuses on investigating the security and privacy challenges for data users in telecommunication services from the lens of the TOE framework and examines the mitigation strategies to address the privacy and security challenges. This study is conducted using qualitative methodology. From the perspectives of data users (telecommunication providers), it could be concluded that data management, data privacy, data compliance, and regulatory orchestration challenges are the most pressing concerns in big data adoption. This study offers contributions in presenting a thematic classification of security and privacy challenges and their mitigation strategies for big data adoption in the telecommunication industry. The thematic classification highlights potential gaps for future research in the big data security domain. This study is significant in that it provides empirical evidence for the perspectives of telecommunication data users in addressing privacy and security issues that are related to big data adoption.

“…As such, the pressure resulting from the practices of competitors and the need to gain competitive advantage can drive firms to change their business-as-usual mindset and innovate and adopt technologies that can "alter the rules of the competition and change the competitive playing field" [100,106,154]. At the same time, despite the competitive nature, most projects require collaborations between multiple firms with different areas of expertise, which in turn creates an incentive to adopt technologypressure from owners, push from clients, incentives by consultants, pressure from Determining Decision-Making Factors for Technology Adoption in the Construction Industry DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.1004365 trading partners across the supply chain, and project stakeholders adopting a certain technology can all push organizations to adopt [106,127]. As for the government's roles, governmental agencies and authorities can affect the diffusion of technologies by passing rules, policies, and regulations, as well as providing incentives and opportunities to create a perception of the values associated with the technology [91,106].…”

“…On another note, social responsibility was the only environment-related factor that was under-researched and mostly investigated indirectly. However, construction organizations and construction projects serve diverse communities and thus, may "either feel a voluntary obligation to a society based on social expectations, norms, and codes of conduct", or be "placed in situations where they cannot ignore the social community due to rising public pressures" and growing need for sustainable and green construction [127,157]. Moreover, more research is providing evidence of digitalization's ability to enable better eco-friendly performance [158], by investigating how investment behavior is affected by an organization's social performance and responsibilities [159], and bringing organizations closer to their communities [19,160].…”

Construction organizations have been undergoing major efforts as the industry acknowledges the need to improve and change its traditional business-as-usual model. Inspired by the wave of technological advancement brought forward by the fourth industrial revolution (i.e., Industry 4.0 or its construction counterpart known as Construction 4.0), the need to investigate and successfully exploit technologies has never been more critical for construction researchers and practitioners. One research topic that remains limited pertains to the organizational aspect of successful technology adoption and the impact on the business environment in which the organization operates. To address the gap, the study utilizes the Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) framework and synthesizes the existing research corpus to develop a comprehensive list of 23 decision-making factors for construction organizations to evaluate when adopting technologies. The study also offers an overview of existing research on the adoption of Construction 4.0 technologies, proposes 97 potential measures to evaluate the factors, and provides a discussion of the research trends. Accordingly, findings from this study can lay the foundation for decision-making processes and frameworks as technology adoption research grows and change efforts expand across the construction industry.

“…Owoo et al [2] defined construction as the process of constructing, repairing, maintaining, altering, and deconstructing structures, highways, streets, bridges, roads, sewers, trains, and communication networks. The industry's significance stems from its close ties to other sectors of the economy since it generates considerably more significant effects through strong linkages with other industries [2,9,11]. However, no construction activity is risk-free due to the industry's demanding, dynamic, and complicated character.…”

The Current Risk Management Practices and Knowledge in the Construction Industry

Construction is a critical sector of any economy in terms of value production, labor, and contributing to the gross national product. Managing risk is a relatively young area in Yemen’s construction sector, but it is gaining traction as building activity and competition rise. Construction firms mitigate risk by using a variety of risk management methods. Therefore, there is a need to assess these procedures in order to detect shortcomings. This research aims to establish the existing risk management strategies used in Yemeni building projects. Survey questionnaires were used to collect data. Respondents were drawn from Yemeni construction businesses. Risk management is not executed systematically, intentionally, or continuously, and most firms’ risk management procedures are reactive, semipermanent, informal, and unstructured, with no or few dedicated resources to address risks. This strategy is inconsistent with generally accepted risk management principles. Nonetheless, the findings suggest a general understanding of risk management and a willingness to learn from previous errors. The study of the findings suggests that risk identification approaches such as judgment and historical data are employed for risk analysis, and that the industry typically attempts to avoid or transfer risks in Yemeni building projects. The results shed light on the shortcomings of Yemen’s project management practices. To guarantee that construction projects obtain maximum value for money, project managers of big construction businesses in Yemen need a strong understanding of and training in globally accepted systematic risk management procedures. Finally, this study can help future stakeholders determine how to work together to manage risk.
