Historic increases in construction costs have impacted the original timeline for school rebuilds and remodels. As such, many Phase 1 projects have been delayed by 7-9 years.
- Annual cost increases since 2016 have been higher than previous trends.
- Increases are related to labor shortages, material costs, tariffs, and supply chain issues.
- Local market conditions have out-paced national trends due to growth.
- Cost increases are anticipated to be near 10% for the next few years.
The Phase 1 timeline is still based on a ‘worst first’ schedule. In addition to these major projects, security upgrades and small scale remodels will continue. Read more about the impacts of cost escalations on school projects.
