Please join us for the following Lunch Program: 

Buckle up – 2026 just ahead, and several factors can shift the course of Hawaii’s construction landscape. Will rising tariffs sway investment decision making? How will federal investments and the long-term rebuilding of Lahaina shape the market? And with economic signals flashing mixed messages, will the industry accelerate or need to reroute? 

In this session, SMPS members will gain exclusive insights from Rider Levett Bucknall’s historic and real-time cost data, offering a grounded view of Hawaii’s evolving market. Learn how to confidently plan, execute and deliver projects in a climate of shifting costs, policy changes and community rebuilding.  

Join us to learn more about:

  • Economic Signals: Hawaii & U.S.

  • Construction Cost Drivers

  • Escalation Trends and Projections

  • The Road Ahead 

Don’t miss this chance to combine connection with insight. Enjoy lunch and then hear a compelling, data-informed look at where Hawaii’s construction market is headed. You'll walk away with both connections and fresh strategies to face the road ahead.
