Favourable industry backdrop

==> picture [62 x 63] intentionally omitted <==

Compliance ESG & CSR

Increasing legislative requirements, like the Modern Slavery Act 2019, and supply chain complexity create significant risk for Contractors

Contractors are pursuing initiatives to improve ESG performance including sustainable materials sourcing, raising female participation and supporting Indigenous engagement requiring firms to source and engage appropriate Vendors

Strong tailwinds provide Felix with expanding opportunities

==> picture [67 x 78] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [58 x 67] intentionally omitted <==

Infrastructure spending

Digitisation

Errors, delays, disputes and rework – caused by ineffective supply chain management – have significant impacts on overall project costs, loss of reputation and penalties driving Contractors to adopt technology to ensure accurate, real-time and comprehensive data flows

Government initiatives to stimulate economies post-COVID-19 include prioritised spending on a range of infrastructure-led construction projects. For example, the Australian Government’s A$110bn land transport infrastructure program
