Based on our project load at any given point, we may be focused on one or more specific regions of the country. Reading Site Selection helps get us out of location-specific details with a good, comprehensive, macro-level update on what is happening throughout the country. Other attributes that we like are the industry-level reports and the project-specific reports."
