Surveyors warn of challenging outlook for construction sector, but opportunities exist, SCSI / PwC Construction Market Monitor 2020
We are delighted to present our 2020 SCSI/ PwC Construction Market Monitor representing the views and insights of nearly 300 members of the Society of Chartered Surveyors Ireland (SCSI) on current trends as well as challenges facing construction consultants and the sector at large. Moreover, the report examines surveying professionals’ expectations over the next 12 months, which is a useful gauge of expected activity levels to come in 2021.
Due to the unprecedented impact of COVID-19 on the Irish construction sector, a supplemental survey was released to SCSI members in June 2020 in order to gauge the impact of the pandemic on the sector at that time and to accurately reflect members’ expectations for the industry over the next 12 months, taking account of the huge level of disruption experienced by the sector as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
