CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa — National Systems Contractors Association has released its latest NSCA Electronic Systems Outlook report, which includes construction outlook information based on data from Q1 and Q2 of 2019, as well as a forecasted outlook for the remainder of the year and beyond.
The Outlook reports were initially created as a response to integrators asking about market conditions and trends so they could adjust go-to-market strategies. The association states it has followed and reported on industry conditions for more than 22 years, knowing that new construction is the best indicator of the future business climate for integrators.
Understanding construction put-in-place totals allows NSCA to predict patterns of slowdowns, recoveries, and market/geographic changes.
