Japan Construction Market by Type (Renovation and New Construction), and by Sector (Real Estate, Infrastructure, and Industrial)–Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2024–2044

The Japan Construction Market size was valued at USD 448.56 billion in 2023, and is predicted to reach USD 571.43 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 2.9% from 2024 to 2030.

The construction industry in Japan is presently undergoing remarkable expansion, driven primarily by a notable increase in large-scale projects. In 2023, significant megaprojects including the Higashigotanda Two Chome Third District Type One Urban Redevelopment, GLP Yachiyo V, Tenjin Business Center Phase 2 Project, Suzaka Refrigerated Showcase Manufacturing Factory, and Kitanakadori North District B-1 District New Construction have played a crucial role in driving the industry's growth trajectory. These initiatives underscore the construction sector's pivotal role in Japan's economic advancement, emphasizing its indispensable contribution to the nation's overall progress.

However, the construction industry faces significant challenges arising from the intricate web of government regulations and permitting processes, that often require a multitude of approvals from various levels of authority, including local, regional, and national bodies. These regulatory hurdles encompass a wide range of requirements such as zoning regulations, environmental assessments, adherence to building codes, safety standards, and other prerequisites. Delays in obtaining permits, bureaucratic inefficiencies, and inconsistencies in regulations across different jurisdictions can considerably extend project timelines and inflate costs. Furthermore, fluctuations in regulations or sudden policy changes can disrupt ongoing projects and deter potential investments. For instance, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) oversees numerous aspects of the construction sector, including air quality, waste disposal, and water regulations, providing compliance assistance resources for environmental responsibilities during various construction phases.

On the otherhand, the construction sector is witnessing a transformative shift driven by digitalization and the adoption of Building Information Modeling (BIM), that are revolutionizing project management processes by integrating advanced technologies to improve efficiency, accuracy, and collaboration. BIM, an advanced 3D modeling tool, empowers stakeholders to create and manage digital representations of structures and infrastructure, facilitating enhanced coordination and communication among project teams. For example, in September 2022, the National Institute of Building Sciences (NIBS) launched the U.S. National Building Information Management (BIM) Program, aiming to modernize the construction industry and achieve unprecedented levels of industrial efficiency through digitalization. This initiative aims to address the lack of digitalization in the U.S. construction sector, that hampers the optimization of work processes to enhance efficiency, cost-effectiveness, resilience, and safety in construction and maintenance activities.
