RESUMO:

Construction projects are complex sociotechnical systems composed of diverse and dynamically interacting elements. The advent of Industry 5.0, aligned with Industry 4.0 technologies, can support construction companies in creating an environment to cope with complexity and improve performance. Other benefits of digital transformation in construction include improvements in productivity, efficiency, safety, quality, and collaboration. Nevertheless, reaching these advantages involves understanding how transformed processes should be managed and measured, such as using maturity models. The construction industry lacks maturity assessment tools for digital transformation encompassing its main characteristics and focusing on the construction phase. Therefore, this work proposes a Maturity Measurement System for an Intelligent Construction Environment from a sociotechnical perspective. The research strategy adopted in this study is the Design Science Research, composed of five phases: Awareness, Suggestion, Development, Evaluation, and Conclusion. Initially, the development of the artifact involved introducing the concept of an Intelligent Construction Environment based on an extensive literature review. Subsequently, data collected from two empirical studies, including 17 interviews and 11 days of on-site data collection, enabled the delineation of a conceptual model for measuring the maturity of an Intelligent Construction Environment. Operationalizing the proposed conceptual model involved Delphi rounds, evaluation sessions with industry and academia, and multiple refinement cycles in both Brazil and the United States (Purdue University), resulting in the development of the Maturity Measurement System (MMS). The MMS comprises 15 dimensions, 75 assessment criteria, and 5 maturity levels. Theoretical contributions of this research include a comprehensive understanding of how construction environments can progress along the digital transformation path from a sociotechnical perspective. From a practical standpoint, the study fills the gap of a maturity assessment tool for supporting digital transformation in the construction phase, enabling managers to monitor progress and set goals and facilitating benchmarking among organizations. Compared to the maturity models already proposed in the literature, the primary advancement of this research is the focus on the construction phase. In addition, using a sociotechnical approach as the model's theoretical foundation is also an originality of this work. Moreover, including Industry 5.0 concepts in a maturity model for the construction industry is also a novelty presented by the study. The artifact was evaluated and simulated, but still lacks implementation in multiple contexts to assess its performance in the intended environment and validate its generalizability
