Overcoming barriers to megaproject success

With over 11,000 megaprojects and 250 giga-projects in progress worldwide, the scale of infrastructure and real estate investment is unprecedented. But, with scale comes complexity and risk. This report explores how collaborative delivery models, robust governance, and integrated teams are evolving to meet the demands of major programmes that now commonly exceed $10 billion.

Where are these $10 billion programmes being built? Which sectors are creating the greatest demand? And which countries are facing the biggest barriers to effective delivery? Backed by a dataset of 5,000+ projects, industry leader interviews, and case studies on success stories like the London 2012 Games venues, the Reconstruction programme in Peru, and Canada’s Go Expansion programme, our report identifies challenges and presents solutions that will enable a better future for major programme delivery.
