Building Without Blind Spots: A Practical Guide to Managing Risk in Construction - Hardcover

by Jessica Lemmonds (Author)

The construction industry is fraught with inherent risks that, if not proactively managed, can lead to significant financial losses, project delays, and reputational damage. "Building Without Blind Spots" aims to equip construction professionals, from owners and controllers to project managers and operations leaders, with the practical knowledge and tools necessary to identify, assess, and mitigate these often-overlooked risks. The core problem this book addresses is the tendency for risks in construction to manifest as seemingly minor issues that, over time, escalate into major problems due to a lack of foresight and systematic risk management. This guide seeks to foster a fundamental shift in understanding, moving from a reactive approach to problems to a proactive strategy that embeds risk awareness into every stage of the construction lifecycle, ultimately fostering more resilient and profitable projects.
