“…Some scientists therefore assume that this research will play a leading role [103] . Disciplines like medicine, law, information and communications technology (ICT) [104] , social sciences, theology, ethics and philosophy recognized that discussing emerging technologies from a cross-disciplinary perspective is a prerequisite to conducting scientific holistic research.…”

The architecture, engineering and construction industry (AEC) undergoes digital transformation, one of the major drivers for technical innovation and dynamism to all working processes. Emerging technologies were only used to a limited extent due to the lack of will to innovate and the unavailability of appropriate orientation guiding users with a more comprehensible framework. The research defined a new gap in scientific research with the concept of Corporate Digital Responsibility (CDR) in Construction 4.0—a term representing the digitization of the branch. The traditionally conservative, highly fragmented industry is predestined for this given the advanced technology, human potential and appreciation of values. Understanding the complex possibilities of innovation and recognizing the potential impact on the sustainability of buildings and the built environment promotes the adoption of corporate responsibility. The implementation of digital strategies, secured by an adapted legal framework, would accelerate the overall human, societal and digital transformation. This primary research investigates the challenges affecting the adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The study highlights in which fields CDR can significantly catalyze innovation to achieve efficient, economic construction life cycles. The study used a mix of methods with a structured literature analysis and expert interview surveys enabling a critical-reflexive analysis of key factors. It evaluates the key tasks to master technological feasibility. By assessing multiple expert perspectives, the study takes stock of the acceptance of new technologies. The findings are expected to inspire corporates, researchers and practitioners across disciplines. Necessary corporate steps are outlined in the study to lay the path for defining their own digital strategy. The study shows that new research questions require a holistic approach.

This paper aims to understand the critical path of digital transformation in Construction by investigating major drivers for technical innovation, e.g., in Smart Cities. Despite available new technologies, increasing societal, environmental pressure, and data complexity the branch lacks a will to innovate and qualified personnel. The study identifies the potential of innovation and the pillars of sustainability to define ways to responsibly use data-driven, smart technologies in smart cities throughout their holistic life cycles. The mix of expert interview surveys and structured literature analysis is the basis to examine the status quo and innovative approaches. It enables to critically investigate limitations and human, societal and environmental impacts. This study`s findings offer orientation in navigating innovation for resilient, agile ecosystems with the dynamic ability to adapt to changing environment and to grow with the change and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) towards preservation and upgrade of buildings instead of new construction. The key challenge for sustainable technical innovation is to exploit human and societal potential. The study allocates the lack of research in this field and inadequate education as most significant limitations and critically evaluates that a disruptive culture of thinking may enable the sustainable design of smart cities. This study is unique as it develops a comprehensive, transparent Corporate Digital Responsibility (CDR) Policy Framework and provides orientation to assume ethical, societal, environmental responsibility as part of creating resilient, agile environments.

“…In the digital era, however, as new technologies are ever more widely deployed, new sets of responsibilities are becoming increasingly evident. Bednarova and Serpeninova [1] (p. 1), for example, argued that "although digitalisation has led to a significant increase in efficiency, it raises certain concerns related to privacy, data protection and other human rights, which might be at stake when huge amounts of data are being collected and processed". The issue was highlighted by the recent call by The Future of Life Institute's open letter, signed by many business leaders, including Elon Musk, proposing a six-month precautionary pause on artificial intelligence (AI) development.…”

As the digital era advances, many industries continue to expand their use of digital technologies to support company operations, notably at the customer interface, bringing new commercial opportunities and increased efficiencies. However, there are new sets of responsibilities associated with the deployment of these technologies, encompassed within the emerging concept of corporate digital responsibility (CDR), which to date has received little attention in the academic literature. This exploratory paper thus looks to make a small contribution to addressing this gap in the literature. The paper adopts a qualitative, inductive research method, employing an initial scoping literature review followed by two case studies. Based on the research findings, a simple model of CDR parameters is put forward. The article includes a discussion of a number of emergent issues—fair and equitable access, personal and social well-being, environmental implications, and cross-supply chain complexities—and a conclusion that summarises the main findings and suggests possible directions for future research.
