Construction Analysis System - Sample

The Construction Analysis System (CAS) is the DD&A Market Analysis database of historical contract awards. Data is available monthly from 1967 to the present, at the individual project level for all non-residential and non-building project types. Single-family residential data is available as summarized totals by county. The database is updated about 2 weeks after the end of each month. Project characteristics include project type, square footage, dollar value, number of dwelling units, story height, new projects vs. additions vs. alterations, county location, public vs. private ownership, building framing method, Dodge Report number, etc. Clients who have their own economic model for predicting future demand for their products will often use the monthly CAS data as a critical input for driving that model and predicting future demand.
