Resilient markets, but challenges remain
As forecasted in our 2022/2023 Fit-Out Cost Guide, inflation levels are now stabilising, resulting in more normal price increases throughout the Australian market.
However, ongoing disruptions in the supply chain are driving up costs for imported materials, and a shortage of skilled labour is impacting productivity and increasing expenses. Despite these challenges, occupiers should aim to strike a balance between returning to the office and creating tech-enabled, hybrid work environments that prioritise employee wellbeing.
We hope this guide provides you with the confidence to make informed fit-out decisions, with a good understanding of the options, risks, and potential opportunities.
