However, further monetary easing and the sizable number of projects in planning should support construction spending in the back half of the year.\u201d<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">On the commercial side, data center, traditional office building, and warehouse planning led this month\u2019s gains. Education and healthcare planning supported the institutional portion, especially on the hospital side. In January, the DMI was up 26% when compared to year-ago levels. The commercial segment was up 37% from January 2024, while the institutional segment was up 9% over the same period. The influence of data centers on the DMI this year remains substantial. If we remove all data center projects between 2023 and 2025, commercial planning would be up 13% from year-ago levels, and the entire DMI would be up 11%.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">A total of 33 projects valued at $100 million or more entered planning throughout January.
