Warning Trends
Tariffs to negatively impact the building and construction machinery sector
- The Trump Administration’s reciprocal tariffs, which apply general tariff rate increases to most countries the United States trades with, are set to take effect on August 7, after the administration finalized the national rates on August 1. As a result, leading sources of imported construction machinery face significantly higher tariff rates, including Japan (15.0%), Mexico (25.0%), South Korea (15.0%), the European Union (15.0%), the United Kingdom (10.0%), China (54.0%), and Canada (35.0%).
- The increase in tariffs on building and construction machinery imported from tariff-impacted countries will add to the price of imports, which are typically passed on to buyers in the form of higher prices. According to The Budget Lab at Yale, the additional tariffs on imports will increase overall prices for machinery and equipment by 13.3%.
- Additionally, the administration has already implemented 50.0% tariffs on all aluminum and steel imported into the United States, with the sole exception of imports from the United Kingdom. These tariffs will increase input costs even for construction machinery suppliers with domestic manufacturing operations.
- According to an April 2025 survey from Construction Equipment Magazine, around half of the respondents reported that the higher tariffs will increase operating costs by up to 15.0%, and more than half said they plan to pass those increases along to buyers.
- As many building and construction machinery brands source parts and components such as steel, engines, and electronics from foreign countries, higher tariff rates will put upward pressure on prices and lead to greater rental rates as manufacturers and dealers pass on costs. In addition, suppliers that source parts from tariff-affected regions may see supply chain disruptions as they seek alternative suppliers to mitigate tariff impacts.

Vendor & Supply Chain Analysis
One of the most significant factors bolstering buyer power is low market share concentration. Low market share concentration allows buyers to choose from a variety of suppliers when sourcing masonry and stonework services, thus spurring price-based competition.
The average financial risk in this market is moderate. Factors that increase potential financial risk include strong competition, which puts pressure on vendors to keep rates low or risk losing business to a competitor.
Masonry and stonework service providers rely on a variety of upstream manufacturers, wholesalers, and mining companies to successfully conduct their business. A concrete shortage in the United States has elevated the supply chain risk level in this market to a high during the past three-year period.
The United States is a net importer of cement, indicating the presence of foreign vendors within the domestic market, increasing price-based competition. However, the reliance on foreign-sourced cement increases supply chain risk and the chance of supply disruptions.

Procurement Management KPIs for the Masonry & Stonework Services Market
Managing vendor performance throughout the contract period is easier when tracking specific key performance indicators (KPIs). For example, buyers should monitor Budget Variance and Employee Absence Rate. Buyers may experience better performance throughout their contracts if they establish service level agreements (SLAs) based on Accuracy and other factors.
| KPI | Level of Importance (1-5) | Measurements | Key Considerations |
|---|---|---|---|
| Budget Variance |
|
Quoted price Frequency of price changes Final price |
Budget variance can determine how likely a vendor is to adjust prices quoted in the RFP. The budget variance may emerge due to increasing wage rates or the price of input cost materials such as cement. Buyers can generally determine the budget variance of a particular vendor based on client reviews and testimonials. |
| Employee Absence Rate |
|
Number of days absent per employee Number of full-work days per employee |
The employee absence rate is used to determine the frequency of employees not showing up on scheduled work days. A high employee absence rate points to a higher likelihood of project delays. |
