In recent months, the construction sector has been facing increasing prices and shortages of raw materials, long shipping delays, and general uncertainty. It is important to gain a deep understanding of the situation in order to find solutions to protect Luxembourg industries.

Researchers at the University of Luxembourg’s Centre for Logistics and Supply Chain Management (LCL) and the Luxembourg Institute for Science and Technology (LIST) have been asked by Luxinnovation to develop and carry out a study which aims to identify and assess key challenges faced by stakeholders in the construction sector, the consequential impacts, and charts paths for exploration to possibly guide decision making and corrective action.

The participation of Luxembourg professionals working in the construction sector and its supply chains is essential to providing decision-makers with a comprehensive view on the evolution of the situation of the sector and how the global shortages unfold in Luxembourg. The personal data and individual responses of the participants is protected and confidential, and results will only published in aggregate form.

Practical information 

The survey, which is open until 24 September 2021, contains 23 questions and will take between 10-15 minutes to complete.

It can be completed in French or English.

Any questions regarding the survey can be sent to Caroline Muller, manager of the Materials & Manufacturing cluster at Luxinnovation at the following email address: caroline.muller@luxinnovation.lu
