Let’s Talk Strategy
What we help you achieve.
Economic development and investment decisions are rarely simple—and the cost of getting them wrong is high.
Impact Economics helps clients:
Bring clarity to complex decisions
Evaluate tradeoffs with credible analysis
Align strategy with financial and political realities
Move forward with confidence and defensible rationale
Whether advising a corporate leadership team or a public organization, our focus is the same: clear thinking, disciplined analysis, and practical execution.
Corporate Advisory Services
Site Selection and Incentive Strategy
Location decisions are capital allocation decisions. We help companies evaluate locations not just on real estate or incentives, but on total project cost, long-term operating risk, and strategic fit.
Our corporate advisory services include:
Multi-site location analysis
Incentive identification and negotiation support
Workforce and operating cost analysis
Financial modeling and scenario comparison
Our work is designed to support executive decision-making and stand up to internal and external scrutiny.
Public Sector Support
Strategic Insight, Analytical Rigor, and Flexible Capacity
Economic development organizations are being asked to do more with less—while managing projects that are larger, faster-moving, and more politically visible.
Impact Economics partners with public-sector clients to provide:
Strategic & Planning Support
Capacity & Surge Support
Financial & Analytical Services
Flexible Engagement Options
We operate as an extension of your team—providing value that complements internal staff and reflects the realities of public decision-making.
