In Brazil, the civil construction sector still follows traditional production technologies, due to the popularity of the conventional construction system. However, this system has low productivity during the execution, generation of construction waste and consumption of non-renewable materials, creating the need for more sustainable construction systems. Therefore, this research seeks to characterize the problems from the perspective of Campo Grande/MS companies, in relation to the diffusion and application of alternative construction systems. The Survey method was used to collect primary data, through the application of a questionnaire to companies operating in the region. According to the results, there is a growing increase in the diffusion of these alternative systems in the region, but the problems widely described in the literature are persistent.
