es

Our construction industry suffers from capacity constraints,
lack of trained manpower and managerial skills with
performance much below international level.
The industry is starved of finance.
Small and medium contractors do not have the wherewithal to
upgrade their capability, both hard and soft, to undertake high
value time bound projects.
Quality, safety, environment and social aspects are also not
being addressed appropriately.
Though there are islands of excellence in a sea of
mediocrity, our companies must become global
players by modernising, intensive training of their
manpower, enhancing their turnover and change of
mindset.

overcome various challenges with respect to housing,
environment, transportation, power or natural hazards.
Technocrats associated with the Indian construction industry need

construction industry to bring about an overall development in
the infrastructure of the nation.
The gains of large investments in the mega-projects eventually
will feedback to the construction industry itself in the form of
better economy and improved work conditions.
