Monthly Inquiry of Contracts and New Orders
The Monthly Inquiry of Contracts and New Orders is a survey of businesses within the construction and allied trades sector in Great Britain. The survey collects detailed information about new orders with a value over £25,000, including the nature of work, location of the project, whether the client is a public or private organisation, the expected duration and the value of the contract. Aggregate information is collected on smaller projects.
The monthly results from this survey give an indication of trends in the construction and allied trades industry, which helps to build a comprehensive picture of economic activity.
