What is Blueprint to 100 & Industry Pulse Check?

As NAHB approaches its 100th anniversary, the association is establishing a bold, forward-looking effort, known as Blueprint to 100. The Industry Pulse Check is the first step of Blueprint to 100, designed to gather insights from members, EOs and industry professionals. With strong participation from our association members, we have the chance to earn a business grant for our HBA, so we can reinvest directly back to our association. In addition, members who complete the Pulse Check will be eligible for a gift card or an expense-paid trip to the 2027 NAHB International Builders’ Show® (IBS).

Visit blueprint.nahb.org to complete the Industry Pulse Check.
