CMD Data, Norcross, Ga., formerly Reed Construction Data, features some very interesting monthly content on www.cmdgroup.com in its listings of the 10 largest construction project starts in the United States and Canada. In its most recent report for Feb. 2015, veteran construction economist Alex Carrick offered some insightful commentary on why CMD highlights large construction projects. He said, “There are several reasons for highlighting upcoming large projects. Such jobs have often received a fair amount of media coverage. Therefore, people in the industry are on the lookout for when job-site work actually gets underway. And, as showcase projects, they highlight geographically where major construction projects are proceeding.
EM’s editors took a look at CMD Data’s three most recent large project start rankings and broke out the 10 largest projects that broke ground Dec. 14-Feb. 2015 that would be of most interest to electrical manufacturers, distributors and independent manufacturers’ reps.
