KPMG’s Global Construction Survey 2012
records that over half of the respondents
see more than 25% of their projects
overrun on the initial bid margin
In the US, 40–50% of all major construction
projects overrun on timing and/or costs,
according to a survey by the Construction
Management Association of America
In Malaysia, a recent survey concluded that
a shocking 92% of construction projects
overrun on time or budget
• Significant delays while damages were rectified
• Major cost impact (no single responsibility for the site)
• Insurances were limited to individuals
• Negative impact on reputation (irresponsible employer)
When things go wrong…
Site flood in India
An on-site flood during a fit-out project in India damaged the site,
the works under construction and space occupied by others.
• Loss in profitability and disruption to business
• Increase in sick leave
• Impact on staff attraction/retention
When things go wrong…
Authority approval and air quality issues
in China
Failing to obtain necessary authority approvals
and not allowing enough time to purge the work
space after construction, caused major delays at
a 50,000-sq ft fit-out construction project.
Risks are hidden throughout the construction journey
• Confrontational relationships
