Construction technology. Design software for horizontal construction is astonishingly bad. The PDF is still the "product" in am era where GPS and automated machine guidance are the norm. We're decades overdue on rethinking project delivery from first principles in the context of modern practices and The inefficiency costs billions. A single bill or FHWA policy memo on open data standards for digital project delivery will be the starting gun for an explosion of disruption in this market. No telling who will win, but it won't be Bentley and I doubt Autodesk can innovate fast enough.
