Built environment: a busy Q4?
With the kids going back to school and people back from holiday, we’re expecting to get busier at Armstrong. Niche companies supporting construction and the built environment have been attracting considerable investor attention over the first half of the year. We expect more of the same in the final Q4 of 2024.
Opportunities for growth
Construction growth: the recent S&P Global UK Construction PMI reported accelerating growth in the UK construction sector. For example, the use of geospatial data which is essential at every stage of a construction project lifecycle. Read our article – Opportunities for investors to help Britain build better homes here.
Creaking infrastructure: Government often do not have in-house resource or expertise to implement complex infrastructure projects and will continue to rely on specialists and consultants to advise and implement projects.
Environmental and resources management: stakeholders have an increased focus on environmental impacts. Buildings are expected to be more sustainable, driving the usage of digital twin and geospatial data, smart building and better monitoring through TICC.

- What are the competitive advantages of operating as a specialist provider versus a large generalist?
- How can we overcome the talent shortages in the industry?
- What does the M&A opportunity landscape look like in the sector?
