Construction in Focus: How the construction sector is responding to the challenges of Covid-19.
Despite the construction sector being classified an 'essential' service during the coronavirus shutdowns, Australia's builders, subcontractors and suppliers are now being confronted by a range of challenges that will potentially challenge the sector even further.
From a multibillion dollar liquidated damages bill to a sustained economic downturn, there is a growing call from the nation's builders for further government stimulus to kick-start activity.
As part of our expert webinar series, The Urban Developer has assembled a panel of industry leading representatives to uncover the key issues confronting the construction sector.
The conversation will explore:
- Current restrictions and their impact on construction sites
- Construction and building supply chains
- Liquidated damages and the burden of responsibility
- Legal considerations for developers, contractors and suppliers
- The likelihood of further government stimulus
- Predictions and contributing factors for potential insolvencies in the sector
- Forecasts for future construction activity
