| Contractor company | Permits grouped by Maryland license number. Licenses that file with the same phone number, email or company email domain are one company. Only permits a contractor filed itself count, so a permit-filing service never merges two companies. |
| Outpacing the market | Permits in the last 90 days at least 1.5× the prior 90 days, after adjusting for the whole trade's change. At least 8 permits and 5 more than expected. |
| Newly active | 2+ permits in the last 90 days and no earlier permit from the company in our records, under any license holder or permit type. Records are complete from April 2026. |
| Big project | 15+ of a company's permits in the trade on one street in 90 days, making up at least 40% of its work. |
| Jobs approved | A permit that moved from county review to active during the week, so work can start. |
| Job site heating up | 5+ of the trade's permits on one street in a week, at least 60% of them from one company. |
| Picking up speed | 6+ permits in the last 2 weeks, at least 2.5× the company's own pace over the prior 11 weeks. |
| Gone quiet | 8+ permits in the prior 10 weeks and none in the last 3. Flagged when the earlier work was mostly one site, since that usually means a project ended. |
