The Construction Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) is a survey-based indicator that measures the activity level and health of the construction industry. It covers residential, commercial, and civil engineering sectors. A reading above 50 indicates expansion in the sector, while a reading below 50 signals contraction.
The index is derived from monthly surveys sent to senior executives at construction firms. They are asked to rate various business conditions, including new orders, employment, and supplier deliveries.
