Using Market Trends and key metrics
Content
Use this section when you want to understand how a specific market is changing over time.
The top tiles and trend charts show how overall activity is changing over time.
Market Trends
- Line charts show how project count, total value, and average project value change by percentage over time for both the current period and the comparison period.
- Project count – Total number of projects in your filtered view.
- Project value – Combined reported value of those projects.
- Average project value – Typical project size in terms of cost.
- Darker shading will always reflect the current period.
- The difference between the two lines helps you see whether activity is increasing, decreasing, or stable.
Hover over any point on a chart to see exact values for that period.
Drill down to projects
By clicking on the line points within the chart, you can open the list of projects that match your current filters for that slice of the data.
Click on a project name to open the Project Details page in ConstructConnect Project Intelligence, where you can:
- See all participating companies and their roles.
- View attached documents and search within them.
- Review additional attributes needed for deeper analysis.
If you’d like more details on how to interpret info on the Company Details Page, take a look at this brief article: Understanding the Company Details Page in Project Intelligence.
You can also translate any line of data into a bar chart, for three different comparison periods
- Current Period Month
- Current Period Week
- Current Period Date
As above, you can open full list of projects by clicking the part of the graph matches the data you’d like to see.

Value Distribution
Content
Use the value distribution chart to see how projects are grouped across value ranges (for example, from under $500K to $100M+), and how that pattern compares to the previous period.
Each bar shows this period side by side with the comparison period so you can see where project value is concentrating or shifting -click any bar or value band to drill into the list of projects in that range.
Just like in previous sections, you can hover over any chart element to see an exact value or click on it to open a list of individual projects.
