More tech. More complexity. Zero margin for error.
2,000 respondents. 8 global markets. One question: why are projects still overrunning, and who's figured out how to stop it?

Nearly half of respondents report software and cloud licensing costs up by as much as 10% in the last year. In an industry with razor-thin margins, paying more for tools that don't deliver measurable value isn't sustainable.
Firms have found a better answer to the skills gap.
Firms are simplifying tools, upskilling existing staff, and turning to automation. The industry has accepted that productivity gains will come from better systems, not more headcount.
