This report comprises a sophisticated analysis of the construction industry in Poland, making it a useful guide in formulating strategic decisions and development plans for organisations active on the construction market.

Further benefits include sector development forecasts for 2008-2010, presented by the individual types of construction work and prepared using time series analysis, augmented by macroeconomic projections.


For this report, PMR Research – PMR’s custom research unit (www.research-pmr.com) – surveyed Poland’s largest construction companies in April 2008. The survey was conducted among 112 largest construction companies active on the Polish market, using the computer-assisted telephone interview (CATI) technique. This was the sixth cyclical survey of the sector (findings of previous surveys were published in previous report editions).

This is a must have report for anyone from:

- the top management of construction companies active on the Polish market
- the strategic planners and executives of firms considering market entry
- companies engaged in construction and those in production and distribution of building materials
- architectural and consultancy firms interested in this market.

The report is an invaluable source of information for any company wanting to launch operations or to fortify its position on one of the local construction markets of Poland.
