IIR Project Database & PEC Reports

What Is the Project Database?

Industrial Info Resources' Project Database helps companies identify and qualify capital and maintenance project opportunities across 12 global industrial markets. Individual project records, known as PEC Reports, follow projects through early planning, engineering, procurement, construction, completion, and other changes in project status.

Coverage includes capital expenditures (CapEx), including in-plant capital, across major new-build projects, expansions, upgrades, equipment replacements, and other industrial investment activity, as well as maintenance projects starting at $1 million. This gives users visibility into both major industrial developments and smaller opportunities that may receive limited public attention.

IIR specializes in hard-to-find industrial projects, including private bid opportunities. For companies serving industrial process and construction markets, this intelligence helps identify relevant projects and key decision-makers so they can pursue prequalification and position themselves for bid invitations.

Hard-to-Find, Invitation-Only Project Intelligence

Turn Hard-to-Find Project Intelligence Into Go-to-Market Opportunities

Industrial Info Resources goes beyond a traditional construction project database by uncovering industrial project opportunities across planning, engineering, procurement, construction, completion, and maintenance, including in-plant CapEx and other work that may receive limited public attention.

Direct research with owners, engineers, contractors, and other project sources helps identify activity that may not appear in public bid notices, press releases, or widely available construction project lists. That broader visibility gives sales and business development teams more time to qualify opportunities, understand who is involved, and engage while specifications, equipment needs, contractor selections, and purchasing activity are still developing.

Within PECWeb, users can narrow project intelligence to the opportunities most relevant to their business using criteria such as:

Industry & Sector

Filter industrial projects by IIR industry and sector to focus on capital and maintenance opportunities within the markets your business serves.

Geography

Find industrial projects by country, region, state, province, or other geographic criteria to focus on activity within your target territories.

Company

Search project activity by owner, operator, developer, parent company, or other organizations connected to an industrial project.

Project Status

Filter projects by current status, including planning, engineering, construction, completion, on hold, cancellation, and other stages tracked by IIR.

Investment Value

Filter projects by Total Investment Value (TIV). IIR uses U.S. dollars as the standard project value and also provides the corresponding local currency based on project location.

Project Timing

Find projects by planned start, completion, and other schedule criteria to identify industrial activity within the timeframes most relevant to your business.

Project Type

Narrow project intelligence by the type of investment or work, including new construction, expansions, upgrades, in-plant CapEx, maintenance, and other project activity.

Engineering Activity

Identify projects with FEED, detailed engineering, and other engineering activity as specifications, equipment requirements, and procurement plans develop.

Contractor Involvement

Find projects involving specific engineering firms, EPCs, contractors, subcontractors, and other companies participating in or pursuing the work.

Equipment Requirements

Find industrial projects based on identified equipment, technology, and other requirements tied to the project scope.

Project Probability Score

Filter and prioritize projects using IIR's Project Probability Score, which indicates the assessed likelihood of a project moving forward.

Process

Narrow projects by the industrial process involved, including applications such as fluid control, liquid handling, solids movement, and other process requirements.

Project Database Basics

A PEC Report is an individual Industrial Info Resources project report containing researched intelligence on a capital or maintenance project. Depending on the project, a PEC Report can include scope, investment value, status, schedules, milestones, companies, contractors, equipment requirements, contacts, and ongoing project updates.

A Capital PEC Report covers a capital investment project tracked by Industrial Info Resources. Reports can include information on project scope, estimated investment value, timing, status, companies involved, key contacts, equipment requirements, and project milestones.

The IIR Project Database is Industrial Info Resources' global database of capital and maintenance project intelligence. It tracks industrial projects through planning, engineering, procurement, construction, completion, postponement, cancellation, and other changes in project status.

PECWeb is Industrial Info's Global Market Intelligence Platform. The Project Database is one of the core datasets available within PECWeb, where project intelligence can be connected with plant, company, unit and equipment, pipeline, transmission, offline event, and LTSA data.

Coverage & Methodology

Industrial Info tracks capital and maintenance activity including new construction, expansions, upgrades, equipment replacements, plant improvements, and other industrial investment projects starting at $1 million in investment value.

An industrial project report can include project scope, estimated investment value, project status, construction dates, milestones, engineering activity, owners, contractors, key contacts, equipment requirements, and project updates.

The Project Database includes industrial construction projects, but its coverage begins before construction. Industrial Info also tracks project activity during planning, engineering, and procurement, providing visibility into projects as they develop.

Industrial Info researchers work directly with companies and industry sources involved in project activity to research and confirm project information. Records are updated as new information on scope, schedules, investment, contractors, equipment requirements, milestones, and status is identified and verified.

Search & Access

Project tracking can begin during early planning and engineering, giving users visibility before construction begins and, in some cases, before a project receives broad public attention.
