CMD Group, formerly Reed Construction Data and Construction Market Data, is a provider of business information for the North American construction industry. CMD is owned by ConstructConnect. Its historical roots lie in Construction Market Data, founded in 1982 to publish construction leads and market data. In 2000, London-based Reed Elsevier purchased this original CMD Group, transitioning the company to Reed Construction Data.{{Cite news| issn = 0362-4331| last = News| first = Bloomberg| title = Company News; Cahners to Acquire Construction-Related Publications| work = The New York Times| accessdate = 2019-12-22| date = 2000-03-28| url = https://www.nytimes.com/2000/03/28/business/company-news-cahners-to-acquire-construction-related-publications.html}}
