The Impact of Industry 4.0 and Industry 5.0 Technologies on Project Management in the Construction Sector: A Bibliometric Analysis

Management has undergone numerous stages before reaching its modern scientific understanding, continuously adapting to changing conditions across different periods while remaining an integral part of practical life. With the growth of the world population and the acceleration of urbanization, the need for industrialization to support environmental, social, and economic activities has increased significantly. Owing to technological advancements, meeting the growing expectations for faster and more flexible production of industrial products through an effective and integrated management approach has become critically important in reducing potential environmental, social, and economic risks. In the construction industry, the unique characteristics of each project further strengthen the strategic role of project management over time. Within this context, the impact of Industry 4.0 and Industry 5.0, shaped by technological innovations, on project management has emerged as an increasingly important field of research. Accordingly, this study primarily evaluates the transformations brought about by Industry 4.0 and Industry 5.0 in the construction sector through a comprehensive literature review incorporating bibliometric analysis. The findings provide concrete contributions to the development of policies and strategies for the adoption of digitalization and emerging technologies in the construction industry, the design of targeted training and awareness programs, and the restructuring of project management processes in a more efficient, flexible, and sustainable manner.
