Building with Insight: Understanding the State of South Africa’s Construction Industry

Each year, the cidb publishes insightful reports that monitor the performance of South Africa’s construction sector. It’s more than just data; it’s a roadmap to the future of infrastructure, transformation, and inclusive growth.

The reports are the backbone of the State of the construction industry stakeholder dialogue where sector leaders unpack trends, confront challenges, and co-create solutions that move the industry forward.

Themes That Drive the Dialogue

Our performance insights and discussions centre around four key pillars:

  • Job creation & economic contribution: tracking how the sector fuels employment and gross domestic product.
  • Demand & supply dynamics: understanding infrastructure demand across public and private sectors, and the industry’s readiness to respond.
  • Industry inclusivity & SME growth: gauging transformation efforts and support for emerging contractors.
  • Contractor sentiment: listening to the lived realities of contractors across all cidb grades.
