Summertime snapshots and pool-side reading

In June, Environment and Climate Change Canada issued a seasonal outlook calling for a hotter than usual summer, with above-normal temperatures expected for most parts of the country right through until September. So, in addition to harbouring thoughts about ways to keep cool in the heat, the team at On-Site got thinking that it might be an idea to provide our readers with some beach or pool-side reading, hence the development of our first bonus Special Edition.

While our regular features and columnists will return in the fall, this special summer issue is entirely dedicated to key industry reports about the construction sector in Canada – the kind of reading material that’s perfect to tuck into a bag as you jet off on vacation or head to the pool for some fun in the sun.

As we share these three major reports, we would like to thank the organizations who have graciously provided their respective documents. Procore, KPMG, the Canadian Construction Association and BuildForce Canada do great work gathering insights for the industry, and we appreciate their support and permission to share their latest data in our pages.

While you and your company are likely paying attention to how market conditions, digital transformation and technology adoption are impacting your company this year, the data collected by these organizations illustrates how the industry is collectively facing challenges.

It is worth noting that, much like the Reader’s Digest magazines that often find their way to cottages and summer homes, the reports presented here are condensed versions. The full documents include additional tables, graphics and sections. As such, I encourage you to use the QR codes at the end of each section to access the original documents.

And don’t forget, there are also many other reports, studies and reviews that the team at On-Site shares throughout the year, so make sure to keep your subscription current. Our weekly newsletter is a great source of news between each magazine. As of our October edition, we will be back to our usual presentation of industry news, statistics and information.

Until next time, enjoy the read, as well as the pool or beach, or wherever you spend the dog days of summer.
