When constructing new buildings overseas, do you build to local regulations or some other guidelines? Does the country where you want to build have strong construction regulations? If building codes exist, when were they last updated and are they enforced?
The answers to those questions and more could mean the difference between business resilience and a major disruption to your business if a catastrophe strikes.
Consider this: As companies grow and expand throughout the world, they are often faced with constructing a new building in a country where they have little experience or may not have a deep understanding of the customs and building codes of this region.
