The objectives were to: determine the types of software used by construction firms in project delivery; evaluate the level of usage of software by construction professionals, assess the efficiency of the software on project delivery and how software adoption can improve the construction industry. Primary and Secondary data were collected. Questionnaires were administered to professionals in selected construction firms. Data were analyzed based on Relative Importance Index (RII). The result showed that the use of software has great and positive impact in varying degrees on cost management, quality management, time management and other aspects of construction management for a successful project execution.
