Infrastructure and Transport: KPMG's trends in 2026

KPMG Global Infrastructure and Transport CEO Outlook (3/2026)
This Outlook finds leaders bullish on growth prospects, with a rebound in strategic mergers and acquisitions, to consolidate and enhance digital and sustainable capabilities. There are high hopes for AI, to drive improvements in project delivery, asset performance and energy efficiency. Supply chain resilience is another big priority, as organisations pivot to new regions in response to geopolitical change. The winners will be those who turn bold headlines into actionable strategies - especially in AI, talent, project performance and financing.

"CEOs are optimistic about growth and AI's potential, despite inflation, supply chain issues, and workforce skills gaps. To seize opportunities in a bright future, companies must build robust technological capabilities, enhance resilience, and deepen regulatory understanding."
