Over €17 Billion Worth of Construction Projects Pipelined For 2017

With an excess of €17 billion in Key and Major Construction Projects already scheduled for 2017 in the Construction Sector, the opportunities are plentiful for all companies that wish to take full advantage of continued growth in the Irish Construction Industry.

Construction Information Services (CIS) have launched their much sought after Annual Report entitled "Construction Opportunities 2017". This single hardcopy volume includes comprehensive descriptions and contact details of over 400 Key and Major Projects that will commence On-Site, significantly progress or be completed in 2017.

Managing Director of CIS, Tom Moloney shares his optimistic views on the excess of €17bn in projects for 2017 his team have predicted.

"With positive growth continuing strongly in the industry as illustrated in the most recent PMI report, and the volume and value of opportunities available steadily increasing, there has never been a better time to expand your business pipeline with prospective contracts, by first identifying them in our Special Report.

"CIS are delighted to report an increase of over €1 billion in combined project values in the 2017 report, so opportunities are plentiful for any company who sell their products or services into the construction industry."

Construction Opportunities 2017 will again this year include in-depth analysis from leading authorities in the Irish Construction sector. The 'Foreword' for this valuable resource will be written by Simon Coveney T.D. Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government."

The main body of the report will cover many topical projects including:

• Key and Major Foreign Direct Investment Projects

• Grade A Office Developments

• Data Centres

• Irish Water Schemes

• Residential Developments

• Tourism and Hospitality Developments

In addition we have enhanced the in-depth value of the report by also including:

• Focused analysis and statistics on construction activity/ trends outside of Dublin/ Leinster Focused analysis and statistics on construction activity/ trends outside Belfast within Northern Ireland.

• Detailed calendar of 2017 Construction Events

• Listings of Top Professional and Contractors in each sector

Echoing the positive forecast statistics by CIS for their 2017 Special Report, The Ulster Bank Construction Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) for September reported new orders increasing for a 39th consecutive month and at its fastest pace since March; which is an excellent indicator of future activity. The overall index has shown growth now for three years.
