+ FIXED FEES · DEFINED SCOPE
Economic and spatial analysis for the organizations that shape communities.
Towns and villages, development districts, nonprofits, brokers, and community groups face the same data demands as big institutions, with none of the staff. We deliver fixed-fee studies, maps, and data systems built on the same federal sources the big firms use, at a scale you can actually buy.

Get Pro-Housing certified without adding staff.
Certification now gates hundreds of millions in state discretionary funding, and the application asks for GIS-ready zoning maps, code summaries, and five years of permit data. That is exactly the work we have already built pipelines for. Flat fee, defined scope, most of the data assembly already done. Ask about the certification package.
Economic Impact Evaluation
Defensible answers to the questions that decide projects: how many jobs, how much output, what it returns to the public ledger. Built on federal multipliers and documented methods that hold up in front of boards, funders, and auditors.

Need ongoing capacity?
Most small municipalities can't justify a full-time economic development analyst. You don't have to. A monthly retainer gets you consistent access to the same capacity larger cities keep on staff: grant data and applications, housing and demographic analysis, project impact numbers, and mapping, delivered when you need it.
Retainer agreements state scope and response times in writing, so "consistent" means something you can hold us to.
FRACTIONAL ANALYST CAPACITY IS LIMITED TO A SMALL NUMBER OF CLIENTS. ASK ABOUT AVAILABILITY.
