Why Communication Matters More Than Ever

Effective communication is the cornerstone of every successful capital and infrastructure project. Yet, research continues to show that communication breakdowns are among the leading causes of cost overruns, schedule delays, and project disputes.

For government agencies, these challenges are even greater. Complex approval processes, multiple stakeholder groups, and strict compliance requirements make it difficult to keep everyone aligned—and every decision documented.

The Cost of Poor Communication

Industry data underscores just how costly communication issues can be:

• 48% of all project rework is caused by poor communication (PMI).
• For every $1 billion invested in projects, an estimated $135 million is at risk due to ineffective communication (PMI).
• Construction professionals spend nearly 30% of their time on non-productive tasks such as searching for project data, resolving conflicts, and correcting mistakes (FMI).

These inefficiencies don’t just slow progress—they divert valuable public resources, erode stakeholder confidence, and create unnecessary administrative burdens.
