Construction Projects in the US
This dataset provides a comprehensive project-level overview of construction and infrastructure initiatives across the United States. Covering 30,132 projects valued at $1 million or more, it includes detailed data such as project title, location, project lifecycle stages, excavation and soil import volumes, valuation ranges, project duration, and timeline details. Alongside this, a Usage Norms dataset with 995 records offers standardized excavation and import metrics segmented by material driver, project scale, and segment. Together, these datasets support project tracking, financial forecasting, volume management, and benchmarking to optimize resource planning and utilization for investors, developers, civil contractors, and public agencies.
Dataset Highlights
Facility Coverage:
- Comprehensive U.S. dataset combining construction project data with standardized excavation and soil importation usage norms.
- Construction Projects & Volume: Contains 30,132 records of U.S. projects valued at $1 million or more, with detailed metadata such as project title, location (city, county, state), lifecycle stages (Planning, Bidding, Design, Negotiation, Construction, Delayed), excavation and importation volumes (tons), project valuation ranges, duration, and start/cycle details. Supports project tracking, financial forecasting, and volume management.
- Usage Norms: Comprises 995 records detailing standardized excavation and soil importation usage metrics in cubic yards, segmented by material driver, project scale, and segment. Includes value ranges, project durations, excavation start times, importation months, importation percentages, and scoring metrics. Acts as a benchmarking tool to guide volume planning and optimize resource use.
Key Data Fields:
- Project Metadata: Project title, location (city, county, state), estimated start/completion dates, project stage, and duration
- Project Classification: Planning, Bidding, Design, Negotiation, Construction, Delayed
- Material Volumes: Estimated excavation and importation volumes (tons/year) by project type and construction category
- Valuation Metrics: Minimum/maximum project valuation, financial modeling across 1,000+ benchmarked projects
- Geolocation & Site Status: Latitude/longitude coordinates, facility status, generator ID
Advanced Analytics
- Market Sizing & Benchmarking: Estimate addressable market and compare activity levels across states or sectors
- Opportunity Prioritization: Rank projects based on valuation, material intensity, or strategic location
- Material Demand Forecasting: Evaluate soil movement by project type to optimize logistics or identify circular reuse potential
- Redevelopment Risk Assessment: Flag environmentally sensitive sites based on contamination, remediation status, or regulatory exposure
- Investor & Partner Targeting: Match project profiles with aligned civil contractors, remediation firms, and infrastructure investors
Use Cases
- Pipeline development for sustainable development management (SDM) projects and funding opportunities
- Sales opportunity identification for civil contractors and material handlers
- Location planning for waste reuse and circular economy initiatives
- Risk profiling for ESG-aligned land use and infrastructure investment
- Strategic planning for public works agencies and environmental consultants
Data Sources & Collection Methodology
- Sourced from regulatory filings, environmental databases and company disclosures, including
- Construction volume datasets, federal and state compliance systems
- Environmental remediation records and soil/contamination reports
- Company operational filings and investor presentations
Each project record is geotagged and linked to classification fields, including site type, contamination flags, volume estimates, and project timeline.
Data Quality & Processing
Delivery State: Processed and ready for integration into GIS, BI platforms, and infrastructure planning tools.
- Processing Workflow Includes
- Geospatial Tagging: All projects are mapped with latitude/longitude and county identifiers
- Volume Normalization: Excavation/importation values harmonized across units and categories
- Project Segmentation: Structured into brownfield redevelopment, construction project tracking, and financial modeling layers
- Profile Enrichment: Company and project data augmented with metadata for strategy, scale, and material handling
- Quality Assurance: Records scored for completeness, geo-accuracy, and data source credibility
