Construction Service
Construction services comprise a range of professional services with a with a specific focus on the construction industry and its associated sub-industries, such as architecture, surveying, and engineering consultancy.
Over recent years, several trends have impacted the sector – both positively and negatively, including the increasing adoption and automation of software processes, a growing focus on sustainable building practices, and a shift towards offsite, modular construction. These trends create a hole of complexity and bureaucracy that well-positioned construction services businesses help plug with their expertise and often tech-enabled product offerings.
We work with owners of businesses to ensure they are correctly positioned so a suitable transaction can be achieved. Companies providing services to the construction sector, such as health and safety, software or labour are very attractive.
