Results from 澳门六合彩开奖预测's Annual Risk Study with FMI

The 2024 澳门六合彩开奖预测/FMI Study highlights key risks in the construction industry. Based on responses from 澳门六合彩开奖预测's in-house risk managers workgroup (collected Dec. 2023 鈥 Jan. 2024), the top concerns include labor shortages, design issues, changes in insurance terms and costs, project delays or cancellations, and changes in contract language. However, one of the most alarming trends highlighted by the study is the uptick in subcontractor defaults. Seventy percent of respondents are seeing an increase in subcontractor defaults compared to one year ago, with nearly half reporting firsthand experience of project disruptions due to subcontractor defaults.  Root causes behind subcontractor distress include financial instability, lack of skilled labor, and quality issues -- especially affecting electrical, plumbing, and concrete trades. In response, construction risk managers are enhancing subcontractor prequalification measures, including more thorough financial and staffing evaluations, seeking out new subcontractors, and increasing review frequency.
