Future　construction　projects　will　need　the　implementation　of　industry　4.0　and　Internet-of-Things　(IoT)　technologies.　The　construction　sector　has,　however,　falling　behind　other　industries　in　the　application　of　these　technologies　and　is　currently　facing　considerable　challenges.　One　of　the　industries　that　lag　behind　in　the　use　of　new　innovative　technological　tools　is　the　construction　industry.　This　study　reviews　the　research　work　in　industry　4.0　and　the　Internet　of　Things　as　they　relate　to　construction　and　examines　key　Ghana-based　construction　professionals　and　firms　to　ascertain　their　level　of　understanding　of　these　emerging　innovative　technologies,　including　the　challenges　and　benefits　associated　with　their　implementation.　An　extensive　review　of　pertinent　literature　was　done　to　help　identify　the　important　paradigms　and　variables　which　were　cautiously　tested.　Adopting　a　quantitative　research　approach,　the　attained　variables　were　used　to　design　into　a　close-ended　questionnaire.　The　sample　frame　was　a　survey　of　people　from　154　construction　experts　and　researchers　with　good　standing　by　using　the　purposive　sampling.　Relative　importance　index　(RII)　analysis　was　used　to　analyzed　the　data.　It　was　discovered　from　the　findings　that　smart　construction　was　the　most　popular　industry　4.0　technology　in　the　Ghanaian　construction　industry.　The　most　important　benefit　of　these　technologies　is　that　they　will　add　sustainable　policy　requirements　to　tendering,　with　the　most　pressing　technology　being　the　lack　of　talent　and　skills　in　using　industry　4.0　and　IoT　technologies.　The　scope　of　this　research　is　based　on　the　questionnaire　survey,　proving　a　sustainable　pathway　to　the　construction　industry　community,　which　creates　its　own　significance　by　including　key　stakeholders　and　those　affected　by　these　technologies.　©　2022,　The　Author(s).
