Industry
Although construction is booming in markets around the world, many companies in the industry have learned through bitter experience to hold back on investment in preparation for the next downturn. That’s not exactly a robust growth strategy. Bain works with the world’s leading construction and building products firms to consistently achieve positive results across favorable and unfavorable market environments.
