NSCA, a non-profit representing the commercial integration industry, announced a new, members-only report designed to offer economic insights to integrators. The report was developed in partnership with Dr. Chris Kuehl and his firm, Armada Corporate Intelligence.

This resource replaces the long-running Electronic Systems Outlook report and aims to give commercial integrators clearer visibility into construction, activity, sector trends and the macroeconomic forces shaping their businesses.

The macroeconomic outlook of the Economic Outlook report will cover GDP expectations, disposable income trends, inflation and interest rate/10-Year U.S. Treasury outlooks, with commentary on how these factors influence technology and construction spending.

Construction forecasts will include national and regional forecasts for nonresidential and residential construction.

The vertical market insights will focus on sector-specific outlooks for key markets that drive demand for technology.

Another focus will be on risks, constraints, and catalysts, with an analysis of labor dynamics, tariffs and trade policy, regulation, and supply chain conditions.

Rounding out he report will be a three-year outlook indicator, which will show data that outlines whether specific verticals are expected to grow, stall or contract.

“By teaming with Dr. Kuehl and Armada Corporate Intelligence to deliver an outlook tailored to our industry, we’re giving integrators a better line of sight into demand drivers, risks and opportunities so they can plan with more confidence,” said NSCA executive director Tom LeBlanc. “This new report translates macroeconomic data into practical intelligence that decision-makers in this industry can use.”
