Summary

GlobalData’s Construction in Singapore - Key Trends and Opportunities to 2028 (Q4 2024) report provides detailed market analysis, information and insights into Singapore's construction industry, including -

  • Singapore's construction industry's growth prospects by market, project type and construction activity
  • Critical insight into the impact of industry trends and issues, as well as an analysis of key risks and opportunities in Singapore's construction industry
  • Analysis of the mega-project pipeline, focusing on development stages and participants, in addition to listings of major projects in the pipeline
The construction industry in Singapore is estimated to grow by 3.3% in real terms in 2024 and 4.1% in 2025, driven by an increase in construction contracts awarded, coupled with rising investments in the energy, transport, and industrial sectors. Moreover, the total value of construction contracts issued grew by 34.1% YoY in the first nine months of 2024, while the total value of progress payments issued for construction rose by 8.2% YoY over the same period.

In early December 2025, Singapore’s Ministry of Finance (MOF) announced an open call for public feedback for the 2025 Budget, which is scheduled to be presented in February 2025. The budget consultations will focus on exploring new policies and initiatives aimed at alleviating concerns such as high cost of living and job security. Some of the government's efforts include new Housing Board flat categorisation framework and increased subsidies for first-time homebuyers.

The construction industry is forecasted to grow at an average annual rate of 4.1% between 2026 to 2028, supported by investments in oil and gas, transport, and renewable energy projects, coupled with the government’s aim to deploy at least 2GW-peak of solar energy by 2030 and reach carbon neutrality by 2050. In line with the plan, in October 2024, Singapore based construction companies, Hyundai Engineering and Construction and Surbana Jurong Group (SJ) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to develop renewable energy infrastructure, and projects related to Small Modular Reactors (SMR) across the country
