Of the 100 active athletic-field projects Signal tracks in Pennsylvania, 41 (41%) are still upstream of the bid board. No single owner dominates: the busiest buyer, Pottstown Borough, holds only 4 of 149 tracked projects, with 107 public buyers active across 6 counties. The buyer mix splits mainly between municipal governments (38%) and school districts (29%). The biggest pre-bid cluster is the 15 projects at the earliest signal stage, where owners are setting scopes and budgets months before any solicitation exists.
