%X Innovation has been described as a vehicle of development. This research therefore address the question  of relevance of fourth industrial revolution in providing backbone for disruption that could make  sustainable development goal 9 achievable. The purpose of the study is to marry the intervention of  disruptive innovation within the context of fourth industrial revolution and how it could help achieve  SDG goal 9. Quantitative approach was used in carrying out the research while random sampling technique  was used to pick samples randomly across the study area. Sample frame of 100 was picked  while sample size of 50 samples was picked from the population frame. Questionnaire designed in  Likert scale 1–5 was used for the study. The following results were presented, the need for disruptive  innovation in construction field, state of disruption in construction operation in construction industry,  factors affecting technological disruption [td], level of awareness of disruptive technology in the built  environment, critical success factor in application of disruptive technologies, major drivers of disruptive  innovations in construction industry and their functionalities. The study later proposed route for  deployment of disruptive application in sustainable construction and achieving millennium development  goal through disruptive innovations. Disruptive innovation is the key to desired technological  development.
