Rivalry can be shaped by tendering discipline, contractor capacity and the technical complexity of available work. Buyer power may be significant where governments, utilities or large industrial customers procure through formal processes.

Weaknesses concern internal constraints, such as concentration, capacity limits or execution complexity where relevant. Opportunities and threats sit outside the company: infrastructure demand, procurement change, labour conditions, material availability, regulation and competitive tendering.
