The complexities of major infrastructure developments are frequently underestimated, with subsurface

conditions playing a critical role in project success. According to KPMG’s 2023 Global Construction
Survey, 50% of construction projects exceed their scheduled timelines, and 37% surpass budget
forecasts, often due to an inadequate understanding of ground conditions. Fugro’s solutions are
designed to help clients overcome these challenges by providing accurate Geo-data during the initial

planning and design phases, enabling informed decision-making and reducing project risks.
