Why This Matters
Permit data is the earliest public signal of construction demand. A spike in permits filed today is work that will be under way in weeks — before it shows up in any lagging economic report. Contractors use it to time hiring and bidding, suppliers use it to forecast material demand, and lead-focused businesses use it to reach owners and contractors while a project is fresh.
