Track How the SLED Market Performed in the Second Quarter of 2023

The second quarter saw the market exceed our expectations and perform at full speed as if there was no chance of recession. Confidence in the state, local and education (SLED) market is supported by stimulus funding and a surplus of state government funding for 46 of 50 states that began a new fiscal year in July. Positive growth in Q2 was led by procurements across major industries like transportation, architecture and engineering, public safety and healthcare.
