SUGAR LAND--June 2, 2015--Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--The U.S. Southeast region, normally one of the biggest spenders on project construction in the nation, seems to be lagging behind most other regions when it comes to the total investment value (TIV) of third-quarter construction kickoffs. Still, the region boasts $5.45 billion in projects planned to begin construction next quarter, according to Industrial Info's project database, with a little more than half of that amount attributed to three industries: Industrial Manufacturing, Alternative Fuels, and Oil & Gas Production.
