From Scattered to Strategic: A Practical AI Adoption Plan for Construction

72% of construction HR teams use AI every week, but only 8% say their company has a plan. The bad news is that unregulated AI use can put your confidential data at risk. The good news is it doesn’t cost much to put a secure plan in place. And the construction HR teams that get intentional with AI now will be the super users in the future.

Where Construction HR Really Stands on AI

AI has arrived in construction HR, but mostly without a plan. Arcoro surveyed construction HR professionals in 2026 to get an honest read on where the industry actually stands on AI and what separates teams getting real value from those still experimenting.

This report shows where AI is helping construction HR teams today, where it’s quietly creating risk, and how to turn scattered experimentation into a strategy that protects your data and saves real time.

Inside the report, you’ll learn:

  • The risk of using AI from the bottom up

  • The most common ways HR teams use AI today

  • Why data privacy is the top concern

  • Where the biggest  opportunities live
