UNDERSTANDING THE IMPACT OF MARKET CONDITIONS
The influence of external factors (local and from other countries such as China) on current and future construction market conditions have always been significant, with impacts on cost projections potentially being greater than normal given current geopolitical volatility and increasing economic uncertainty.
To maintain awareness of these ever-changing conditions, we have introduced a new take on our Construction Market Conditions Report, led by our Construction Economist Damon Roast.
Joining us in June 2022, Damon brings over twenty years of experience from consulting and in-house (Tier 1 Contractor) perspectives, and through his deep knowledge of key drivers of escalation (from a strong foundation of economic fundamentals and analysis across all construction sectors), Damon delivers an accurate and rigorous evaluation of market conditions.
With considerable time spent covering local and various global construction markets, Damon enables us to conduct both local and international Market Reports.
To assist our clients with a deeper understanding of the impact of market conditions on their costs, Damon’s expertise is also available for engagements on client specific research, which could include more specific cost forecasts.
We have committed ourselves to providing the most accurate and relevant reporting on market conditions, and will continue to do so for our clients, colleagues, and peers.
