Reed Construction Data, a subsidiary of Reed Business Information, is a provider of business information for the North American construction industry.
There is also a Reed Construction Data business based in Australia with offices in Sydney (head office), Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth. It was renamed to Cordell Information in July 1, 2010 and still owned by Reed Elsevier. There are three divisions to the Australian business, Cordell Costing Solutions, Cordell Construction Projects and the Cordell Tenders Online division. With the use of computer-aided design, Reed essentially brokers blueprints to contractors whom are active in commercial construction. They compile their published information through a variety of means, initially with reporters but more recently the bulk of its information is acquired by web-crawlers and relationships with certain architects and general contractors.
The Chief Executive Office of Cordell Information Australia is Rob Wild who is supported by a senior management team.

“The treatment of African and African American culture in our education was no different from their treatment in Tarzan movies.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
“There’s no art
To find the mind’s construction in the face:
He was a gentleman on whom I built
An absolute trust.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Mental health data from the 1950’s on middle-aged women showed them to be a particularly distressed group, vulnerable to depression and feelings of uselessness. This isn’t surprising. If society tells you that your main role is to be attractive to men and you are getting crow’s feet, and to be a mother to children and yours are leaving home, no wonder you are distressed.”
—Grace Baruch (20th century)
