The Water and Wastewater Equipment Manufacturers Assn. (WWEMA) has partnered with Janney Montgomery Scott to offer manufacturers and their representatives the Water and Wastewater Equipment Market Analysis Report. The quarterly report includes the newly created WWEMA/Janney Leading Index, formulated to provide insight into the market and funding conditions related to municipal water and wastewater projects.
The first report, covering the third quarter of 2014, points generally to increased demand and funding in the very near-term with flattening demand over time. The index and the analysis were developed based on six data-driven factors: municipal bond issuance; municipal financial health/pensions; water and wastewater utility employment figures; water infrastructure equity performance; residential building permits; and ductile iron pipe pricing. The report includes graphs and charts relating to these factors, depicting data and trends dating back as far as 2005.
The full report is available exclusively to WWEMA members.
