The New Jersey HVAC pipeline is unusually early-stage: 389 of 670 active projects (58%) have not reached a bid board yet. No single owner dominates: the busiest buyer, Pleasantville Public Schools, holds only 6 of 709 tracked projects, with 540 public buyers active across 21 counties. School districts drive 44% of the volume, ahead of municipal governments at 24%. The biggest pre-bid cluster is the 132 projects at pre-bid, where owners are setting scopes and budgets months before any solicitation exists.
