New York City Capital Projects Budget and Schedule Data

Capital infrastructure projects with committed budgets are tracked by the City of New York. Financial data from the Office of Management and Budget is joined with agency schedule data via a unique Financial Management Service ID. The dataset was last updated in December 2025.

Use Cases

• Forecast project completion dates using Forecast Completion and Current Phase columns.
• Analyze budget allocation and spending efficiency by Borough and Ten Year Plan Category using Total Budget and Spend to Date columns.
• Identify projects in the construction phase by filtering on Actual Construction Start and Actual Construction End dates.
• Track project progress and phase transitions using Current Phase, Current Phase Start, and Forecast Current Phase End fields.

Strengths

• Contains 25 distinct columns covering financial, scheduling, and administrative attributes.
• Uses a unique FMS ID for joining with other official budget datasets from the Office of Management and Budget.

Limitations

• Schedule data is only available for projects in the design phase or later, excluding early-stage proposals.
• The relationship between FMS IDs and agency projects is not strictly one-to-one, which may complicate joins and aggregations.
