INDUSTRY SNAPSHOT
CONSTRUCTION
High Compliance, Variable Cashflow, and Heavy
Scheduling Pressure
Industry Snapshot
Australia’s construction and trades sector operates under strict regulatory requirements,
fluctuating project timelines, and unpredictable cashflow cycles. Builders, contractors, and
tradespeople often manage multiple jobs, subcontractors, and supplier payments
simultaneously — leaving limited time for financial oversight.
Nearly 30% of construction businesses fail within five years, largely due to
inconsistent cashflow, project delays, and rising compliance obligations.
