  <title>Finding Growth in a Shifting Construction Market</title>
  <description>In this&amp;amp;nbsp;Contractor Outlook™ episode, Heidi J. Ellsworth talks with Paul&amp;amp;nbsp;Trombitas, partner at FMI, about what the latest construction outlook means for contractors navigating an uncertain market. Drawing from the&amp;amp;nbsp;2026 Q2&amp;amp;nbsp;North America Construction and Engineering Outlook Report, Paul breaks down why the industry is still positioned for growth, driven by power infrastructure, data center&amp;amp;nbsp;demand&amp;amp;nbsp;and steady nonresidential activity, while residential sectors show signs of improvement ahead. He also offers a reality check on headline megaprojects, explaining why they may not deliver widespread opportunity for most contractors. With&amp;amp;nbsp;perspective&amp;amp;nbsp;on shifting healthcare construction, solid backlogs and cautious sentiment, this episode helps contractors&amp;amp;nbsp;identify&amp;amp;nbsp;where real opportunities are&amp;amp;nbsp;emerging&amp;amp;nbsp;and how to plan for sustainable growth.&amp;amp;nbsp;  Learn more at&amp;amp;nbsp;TheCoffeeShops.online!&amp;amp;nbsp;https://thecoffeeshops.online/&amp;amp;nbsp;    &amp;amp;nbsp;   Are you a contractor looking for resources?
