Sarah Martin, associate director of forecasting for Dodge Construction Network, stated, “Increased uncertainty around material prices and fiscal policies may have begun to factor into planning decisions throughout March.”

| Commercial Building | 256.6 | 278.2 | -7.8% |
| Institutional Building | 142.6 | 150.0 | -5.0% |
Martin continued, “While planning data has weakened across most nonresidential sectors this month, activity remains considerably higher than year-ago levels and still suggests steady construction activity in mid-2026.”
From a year over year prospective, Dodge stated that the DMI was 30% higher than March of 2024. Commercial activity was up 32% and institutional planning was up 27%.
