The latest HKA CRUX Insight report finds that construction projects in the Middle East faced the longest overruns of any global region, adding on average more than 80% to schedules, with claimed costs averaging 35.8% of project CAPEX. Amidst challenging global headwinds, how do trends in conflict causation, avoidance, and prevalence in the Middle East compare to the rest of the world? What are the key considerations for businesses wishing to avoid the risk of overruns on complex construction projects in the region? And as industry in the Middle East adjusts to more technically advanced projects, what lessons can be learned to avoid further distress on capital projects?
