Logistical Challenges of Modular Constructions to Inhibit Market Growth

While the introduction of modular construction for healthcare has immensely benefited the medical sector, the logistical challenges associated with the delivery of these structures are expected to thwart the growth trajectory of this market. For example, the modules need to be carefully packaged, loaded, and transported to the concerned site from an off-site location, which may be far away. Moreover, since the logistics involved in the delivery of these structures are complex, the managers need to envisage the materials and design required at the beginning of the project itself, complicating the process even further. In addition, the preparations entailing the supply of materials and the final product to the concerned destination end up pushing up the initial manufacturing and transportation costs, even though the overall cost-savings in the long-run are substantial. The complex logistics and packaging processes surrounding the modular construction for healthcare domain are foreseen to limit its adoption in the healthcare sector.
