Can the construction industry cope with the challenges of the future? This book presents an analysis of the state of large construction companies. It focuses on the changes in their environment and behaviour from the boom conditions of the late 1980s. It also exaimines the decline in the firm's traditional markets and their attempt to develop others, the disastrous financial experiences of the early 1990s, the changes in strategies and structures, and in the management of the firms. It is based on published data and interviews with senior executives of 20 major firms.
