Well-established technical standards and guidelines provide guidance for the application of digital technologies and increase the acceptance of new technologies by technicians. In addition, relevant studies have shown that Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) and technical standards can have a significant driving effect on digital technological innovation based on effective synergistic institutional arrangements ([PERSON], 2018). The cycle of return on investment for digital technology applications as an outcome factor and surface factor is the direct uncertainty of the new generation of digital technology applications in China's construction industry, and the length of the return on the investment period directly affects the adopters' decisions ([PERSON], 2018). According to analysis by McKinsey, new digital technologies have not been embraced by the engineering and construction industry, even though the long-term benefits are significant ([PERSON], 2018). When the payback period is long, the adopters will not have confidence to continue to invest in the new technology and other observers will be discouraged from adopting the new technology. Conversely, when the payback period is relatively short, it provides a strong incentive for potential adopters to adopt the new technology. Talent is an important production factor in upgrading the application of digital technology in the construction industry. The factors in terms of personnel in the importance ranking: the acceptance of digital technology, the number of professional and technical personnel and the willingness to share results and data sharing are ranked first, second and fifth, respectively. Construction projects generally have a long production cycle, complex construction technology and other characteristics; in civil engineering, installation and other types of work, with the process of operation, if the construction project professionals believe that digital technology can help them to be more certain of solving the problem of work, their acceptance of digital technology will be increased accordingly and the completion of work and the quality of work will be improved accordingly. This reinforcing mechanism will form a virtuous circle between individual perception and technology acceptance, which will continuously increase willingness to adopt digital technology. Digital talent is the foundation of technology promotion; however, the \"Industrial Digital Talent Research and Development Report (2023)\" published by Social Science Literature Press and other publishers pointed out that the current gap of digital talent in China is 25 to 30 million and the gap is still increasing; the number of digital talents in the construction industry is even smaller, and there is an urgent need to establish a systematic and comprehensive digital professional knowledge training or technical education programme and cultivate composite professional technical talents. In order to increase the number of professional and technical personnel, the construction industry can establish a good incentive mechanism, encourage the pilot work of various digital technology applications, continuously accumulate pilot experience, cultivate professional teams and improve the talent training system. Therefore, according to the analysis of the improved model, the new generation of digital technology is an important driving force for the digital transformation of China's construction industry and the deep integration of the two is crucial; therefore, the uncertainty of the application of the new generation of digital technology should be considered to advance the process of digital transformation in the construction industry.
