The construction industry in Australia is facing significant challenges, including labour and skills shortages, rising costs, and increasing competition. These challenges threaten the ability of construction companies to become resilient and sustainable in the long term.
Technology is a crucial enabler for construction companies to attract and retain talent, improve supply chain management, financial management, talent retention, and productivity improvement, which are essential for building a strong and sustainable construction business.
Over a three-course lunch, we will explore challenges and best practices on how digital adoption can help build resilience in the construction industry.
During this roundtable we will:
- explore the meaning of resilience and why it holds importance for the industry today
- discuss the most significant challenges and disruptions being faced in construction
- examine the four pillars of a resilient construction business including strong financials, solid relationships, highly efficient processes and engaged talent.
Don't miss this opportunity to meet and explore with your industry peers how digital adoption can help build resilience in the construction industry and overcome the challenges facing the construction industry in Australia.
