Abstract
The construction industry in Pakistan is
well aware of the challenges it faces and its issues,
constraints, and recommendations are also well documented in
reports published from time to time. This study shows that
business environment (demand-side), Human Resources (HR),
equipment and materials are key factors restraining growth
therefore showing that there are no short-term fixes for
these problems. A sustained long-term committed approach to
developing the construction industry (contractors,
consultants, and, clients) is of paramount importance.
Considering the Government of Pakistan's (GoP)
ambitious development plans for the coming years, innovative
and out of the box solutions will be required to deliver the
proposed infrastructure projects.
