Methodology Registry
Transparent documentation of all analytical frameworks used in WIL research. Each methodology includes purpose, variables, data sources, weighting approach, version history, and validation status.
Registered methodologies
Workforce Exposure Index™
Five-component composite index measuring operational workforce constraint across U.S. construction markets at state resolution.
Compensation Volatility Framework™
Tracks compensation movement, regional spread, and directional trend for core construction execution roles.
Project Execution Risk Matrix™
Maps workforce risk across project execution dimensions — role criticality, market depth, replacement velocity, and compensation volatility.
Data Center Pipeline™
Tracks verified hyperscale and colocation data-center construction as a leading indicator of electrical and mechanical labor demand.
CHIPS-Grid Collision Index™
Composite index reading concurrent semiconductor fab and grid build-out as a directional labor collision signal.
Registry scope
The methodology registry documents analytical frameworks — not operational tools or hiring systems. Each entry specifies the research question it answers, the variables it uses, and its validation status. For general methodology notes and confidence framing, see Methodology & Confidence Notes.
