Executive Summary

This report examines how enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems in real estate and construction are evolving from fragmented, legacy environments into integrated, cloud-native and increasingly AI-enabled platforms. The real estate industry’s late digitization has created significant integration debt, with firms operating across layered point solutions that lack consistent data structures. This fragmentation has led to diverse ERP architectures – ERP-centric, real estate-centric and project-centric – which reflect different operational priorities, but also increase the need for standardization. As a result, organizations are shifting towards cloud-native ERP systems to unify financial and operational data, ultimately aiming at the broader goal of supporting AI-driven workflows.
