Despite offering opportunities for business expansion, risks from foreign exchange (FOREX) fluctuations are some of the challenges that need addressing. These fluctuations have affected the construction business at company level and project levels. Most of the impacts are related to financial issues. Thus, coordinating strategic plans to deal and mitigate the impacts of FOREX fluctuations is crucial. A qualitative research was conducted in response to this.

The respondents ranged from Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Chief Financial Officer (CFO), financial and project managers. NVivo Version 11.0 was used in managing the transcribed interview data.
