Barbour ABI has launched ‘Snap Analysis’, a brand-new format for its monthly report, previously entitled the Economic and Construction Market Review.

Each month, and for almost ten years, the Barbour ABI economics team produce a report analysing construction contract awards comparing historical activity levels by region and sector. The new ‘Snap Analysis’ report includes more graphs, charts and visual data displays. Furthermore, Barbour ABI have also added in new sections with additional analysis of projects reaching planning approval and application stage for readers who are interested in the earlier planning stages. And it’s completely free of charge

What are the new features?

Barbour ABI have retained all the information they have always provided in the Economic and Construction Market Review, but now they have updated the format to display the data in lots of new features. These include:

  • A newly developed Relative Strength Index (RSI) which quickly and easily explains the strength of sector performance by month, quarter and year using a 0-100 scale
  • Radial graphs to show the levels of activity (using our RSI) in all sectors by region
  • Future expectation and risk analysis by sector

Furthermore, whilst the previous report analysed projects that have reached contract award stage, the new ‘Snap Analysis’ report also includes the planning approved and planning application stages, including regional and sector analysis.
