Construction

There are many risks unique to the construction industry.

And it isn't easy to plan for them. For example, how do you remain profitable in a highly competitive market? Are you maintaining an adequate backlog of work, or do you need to be more aggressive? Material and labor costs are consistently increasing, paired with uncertainty in the governmental climate, leaving many in the construction industry with questions and concerns about the future of their business.
