Our market forecasting provides total spending analysis for capital and maintenance budget types by industry segment and by year and can be provided by world region, country, market region, state, county or zip code.
Our forecasts are derived from actual project information surveyed by our industry experts. IIR performs over 1,000 interviews per day, resulting in over 10,000 detailed projects and over 7,000 maintenance turnarounds, outages and shutdowns reported annually. Our modeling captures total spending for the market, using historical and future project information, leading economic indicators, as well as commodity and labor pricing forecasts to establish our estimates for each year.
Forecasting is available out to 2015 with historical (actual) performance statistics back to 1997. Data delivery is available in xls, dbf and CSV format and can be customized to meet your analytical or modeling needs.
Factors for Equipment and Services
As part of our market forecasting, IIR creates custom Spend Factors that allow companies to determine the spend potential for their product lines, services or required labor against their target geographies or industry segments. Factors we create help determine the size of the market based on industry, budget type, and project type down to the county or zip code level, and through regular quarterly updates, can provide a powerful view of a client's current and potential markets.
In addition to the list of current factors, IIR can create custom factors designed to meet your business intelligence needs.
