As global trade dynamics continue to evolve, construction financial professionals must stay ahead of shifting tariffs and their ripple effects on material costs and supply chain reliability. This timely webinar will explore how new and existing tariffs can influence the pricing and availability of construction materials, posing potential risks to project budgets and timelines. Attendees will gain valuable insights into forecasting and financial planning strategies, as well as practical, contract-based solutions for managing uncertainty.
Our presenters will point out key considerations when negotiating construction contracts to protect your organization against price escalations and supply delays. By taking a proactive approach, construction finance leaders can better safeguard their projects and maintain profitability even in a volatile market.
After this session, attendees will be able to:
- Identify how tariffs and global trade policies can affect material pricing and availability in the construction industry.
- Evaluate potential supply chain disruptions and their financial implications on ongoing and future construction projects.
- Implement proactive contract strategies — such as price escalation clauses, contingency planning, and supplier diversification — to mitigate risk and protect project financials.
