About

Madeleine Hoeft is a leading researcher at the intersection of civil infrastructure, digital innovation, and sustainability. Her work focuses on how automation, robotics, and Building Information Modelling (BIM) can transform public-private partnership (PPP) projects and occupational health and safety (OHS) across the building lifecycle. In her highly cited 2021 study (48 citations), Hoeft developed a pioneering model showing how automation and robotics can enhance life cycle sustainability in PPP infrastructure, bridging the gap between public-private collaboration and emerging technologies. Her 2022 work (32 citations) further explores the untapped potential of BIM-based platforms to embed safety directly into design, construction, and deconstruction processes, using mixed-method approaches to reveal practical OHS improvements. Together, these contributions have positioned Hoeft as a key voice in sustainable infrastructure and digital construction safety. Her research not only advances academic understanding but offers actionable frameworks for industry practitioners seeking to integrate technology with long-term project resilience. With growing citation impact, Hoeft continues to shape how we build safer, smarter, and more sustainable infrastructure for the future.
