“Etude pour les constructeurs” 1950 Fernand Leger

We follow the construction spend rate of the US education industry; using the US Census Bureau Construction Spending figures released the first day of every month.  (We encourage our colleagues in the education facilities industry to respond to Census Bureau-retained data gathering contractors in order to contribute to the accuracy of the report.)

We will scan noteworthy releases of tax advantage financial instruments that finance this construction.

With emphasis on OB-GYN because educational settlements are where families begin and grow among the young.

Many research universities have large medical research and clinical delivery enterprises that provide significant revenue.   We periodically scan public consultations for literature that sets the standard of care for the facilities and technologies in these enterprises in education communities.
