Abstract-The digital economy, which is a new economy represented by the inclusion of technology and digital information, has become a dominant force in today's economy. In Thailand, there is an urgent need to leverage digital technology to drive the country forward. Therefore, Digital Thailand Plan is developed to generate social stability and economic wealth in Thailand. This paper presents a study of readiness for moving toward Digital Thailand, a case study in a government sector. The research process consists of three stages: 1) Literature review 2) An in-depth Interview of top-management officers in eight government agencies 3) Analysis and conclusion. In this paper, the readiness for moving toward Digital Thailand is analyzed regarding Information System management, E-Government Service, Staff, Data Management, Digital Technology and Infrastructure, and Organization's culture.

“…Although offered definition focuses on the technical aspects of construction technology, it contains practices and processes that support technology [10]. These technology include tools and technology which are independent, integrated and web-based and apply to capture, store, process, display and communicate data and information in different phases of construction [11].…”

New digital technology has the potential to decrease the environmental footprint of construction activities, while they increase the productivity and safety involved in major construction projects. Digital technologies such as web-based building information modelling (BIM) and sensing technology are emerging technology that can be widely employed in construction projects in developing countries. However, the construction industry tends to be slow in adopting new digital technology to meet their objectives in developing countries. This paper aims to investigate construction technology readiness for utilization of digital technology in construction projects and to identify the factors that can potentially facilitate construction stockholders' application of digital technology.A questionnaire is designed, and an empirical investigation is conducted to collect data from construction companies including industrial and infrastructure construction companies. Regression analysis was utilized to analyze the data to measure the relations of latent factors through significance values using SPSS. The findings show the importance of a series of factors influencing construction stakeholders' intention to use a new digital technology. Based on the extensive review on the relevant literature, few empirical studies have been conducted to examine the proposed constructs including innovativeness and optimism for emerging digital technology. The results are also expected to provide a guidance to broaden understanding of adoption behavior within this context and thereby increasing the chances for successful adoption of sustainable technology and develop activity-level.
