Assessing and Addressing Risks in Pacific Construction Supply Chains

Bol

This report examines how the Pacific region's complex operating landscape affects supply chain risks for the construction sector and analyzes ways to overcome logistical hurdles and open the door to new entrants to help drive growth.Noting the region's remoteness, small markets, and high disaster exposure, it assesses 14 Pacific economies and considers factors including inadequate port infrastructure, labor shortages, and foreign exchange volatility. Drawing on the results of stakeholder interviews, it shows how jointly promoting project pipelines, fast-tracking visas, and encouraging governments and development partners to coordinate projects could help mitigate industry risk and build resilience in the region.
