Construction Insights

Summer 2024

The global construction sector continues to face significant headwinds in 2024. High interest rates have dampened activity, but expectations of a lower interest rate environment in 2025 have improved the outlook.

Globally, costs have decreased from peak 2021-2022 levels; however, electrification-focused commodity prices are high.

Primary risks continue to be geopolitical and economic pressures, along with labor constraints, which are affecting construction projects globally.

The Construction Insights – Summer 2024 report provides insights into the key factors that influence the construction sector in 2024, empowering you to make informed decisions for your organization throughout the year.

 

Key Takeaways:

  • Global supply chain stress receded from peak levels, but geopolitical tension is applying upward pressure across regions.
  • Labor constraints persist in the sector, making it difficult to fill open positions and resulting in extended project timelines.
  • Construction pipelines for industrial and office construction have fallen from peak levels.
