5. Growth prospects
Global construction infrastructure sector
• In 2014, the
global
construction
industry is
estimated to be
worth US$ 9.4
trillion, which is
expected to
grow to just
under US$ 12
trillion in 2020
representing a
compound
annual growth
rate (CAGR) of
4% (FIGURE 1)
6. Growth prospects
Construction infrastructure sector – Asia/MENA/Latin America
Aging infrastructure in advanced economies and the need to fill infrastructure gaps in developing economies will be
the main drivers for construction investment growth over the coming years
Source: Brooking Institute, World Atlas, IMF (Pie charts)
7. Growth prospects
Construction infrastructure sector - ANZ
The value for construction industry is equivalent to
$40bn in New Zealand, spread across residential
($20bn), commercial and social assets ($15bn), and
infrastructure ($5bn)
Engineering construction was the equivalent of 7.1% of
Australia’s GDP at the end of 2012, a stunning rise from
1.9% of GDP a decade ago (as illustrated above by Deloitte
Australia)

10. Trends and challenges
Trends in EPC vertical
• With the global outlook
resorting to alternative
contingent plans for producing
& distributing energy
• There is rising interest as well
as investments as catalyst for
growth of the Renewables
Energy (RE) space

RISINGINVESTMENTINNICHE
RENEWABLESENERGY
Of total investment in the Twelfth FYP is
expected to come from private players. In
addition, several government schemes &
initiatives facilitate the entry of large
independent power producers and
encourage FDI in Renewables Energy sector.
The sector provides a lucrative opportunity
for EPC companies.

11. Trends and challenges
Challenges in EPC vertical
• Scoping feasibility – From scattered individual silos-
based systems to Cloud technologies or integrated
on Premise
• Integrated PMIS with – Procurement, Finance
systems
1st
• EPC lump sum contracting strategy – Emergence of claims
due FEED latent errors
• Higher change order requests – High reviews
• Higher Dispute/conflict resolution use cases
2nd
• New contractual related technology challenges – Dynamic
operating EPC ecology
• Flexible ERP footprint – “Review” and “approval” or
“reject” processes that govern the decision-making around
change orders & ambiguous interface situations

• Delay – Environment clearances, land acquisition
• Regulatory challenges – Restrictions on entry of
international operators
• Elongated wait – Project opportunities
• Time overruns – Project completion
• Project inflationary cost escalations
6th • Availability of long-term financing?
• Precarious financial position of developers limiting
