Since 1981, a business cycle survey has been carried out for the Austrian crafts and trades sector on a quarterly basis. Indicators of economic development are analysed at the level of sectors, federal states and company sizes. Sector and industry-specific studies focus primarily on ensuring the competitiveness of trade and craft enterprises.
The study includes a presentation and description of the value chain of the Lower Austrian construction industry (construction sector as well as real estate and housing), an analysis of its regional and economic importance as well as an estimation of the effects on the Lower Austrian and Austrian economy of an increase in demand for Lower Austrian construction services.
