Securing the value of mineral assets.

Market Studies

CWCs market studies can focus on construction aggregate, ready-mix concrete, asphalt or all of the above.  Each study presents the historical and existing conditions of a market area.  Additionally, existing sources of supply are identified and compared to demand within areas of consumption.  The historical and existing supply and demand for a construction materials market area supports the next step of projecting supply and demand in the future.  When clients have a firm understanding of a market, they can make informed investment decisions to ensure they can maximize the value of their mineral assets.

When are Market Studies Needed?
  • Substantial evidence is required for an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) to provide information to support the Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) analysis, and/or justify the purpose and need for the project being evaluated.
  • Strategic planning and investment decisions for a construction materials company.
  • Support documentation for a mineral valuation or appraisal.
CWC Experience
  • Multiple construction aggregate market studies throughout California and many other States.
  • Substantial evidence for VMT analysis in a variety of EIR documents.
  • Support documentation for various real estate appraisers.

We would highly recommend her valuation services in the construction aggregates industry.

Ms. Howard performed a market study "evaluation" and prepared a comprehensive valuation report for our company's aggregate deposit (800+ acres).

The accuracy and thoroughness of Ms. Howard's work was essential for our management team to understand our market, the players and the value of our mineral assets. We would highly recommend her valuation services in the construction aggregates industry.
