CONSULTING EXPERTISE Economic Impact Analyses Econsult staff and affiliates assist firms, government agencies and not-for-profit organizations in evaluating program design and comparing the design to how a program is actually working, as well as determining a program's strengths and weaknesses, and developing recommendations for improvement.
State and Local Public Policy and Finance Analysis State and local governments are increasingly confronted with difficult choices regarding the provision of public services, school funding, tax policies, and public infrastructure and human capital investment. As business and households become ever more mobile, Econsult's State and Local Policy and Finance Group is uniquely qualified to help state and local governments develop strategies to efficiently deliver public services demanded by residents, develop tax revenue streams that are fair and impose the least distortion to the private economy, and make the investments necessary — in both bricks-and-mortar and people — to ensure state or locality's future competitiveness. Just as importantly, the Group can help private entities seeking to participate in the policy process and businesses seeking to optimize in the context of changing public policies.
Transportation Economics, Policy and Planning Nationwide transportation and transportation related expenditures constitute a huge percentage of our economy. Locally few issues are as important for the economic development and quality of life of our communities. Under the direction and leadership of Richard Voith, Ph.D., the core mission of the Econsult Transportation Research Group is to provide the clear understanding of the economics driving the household and governmental transportation choices that is crucial to guide private and public transportation investments.

Economic Development and Real Estate Analysis Economic development and real estate development are increasingly important fields for both public and private entities. Econsult’s Economic Development and Real Estate Development Group brings a breadth of knowledge gained from many years of executive-level experience. We can assist both government and private sector clients in strategic thinking and efficient implementation of programs or projects.
Project and Program Evaluation In an increasingly competitive landscape in terms of government and charitable dollars, there is all the more emphasis on third-party evaluations of projects and programs that are sound, analytical, and compelling. Econsult assists government agencies, non-profit organizations, and other advocates in properly evaluating their initiatives. Such evaluations serve a two-fold purpose: internally, they can be used to divine any strengths that should be extended and any weaknesses that should be addressed, and externally, they can be used to justify past funding and compete for future funding.
Travel and Tourism Travel and tourism is one of the world’s largest and fastest growing economic sectors, and, as a true export industry, is highly valuable to local and regional economies. It is now more important than ever for cities and other locations to distinguish themselves as unique destinations, and to do so effectively often requires engaging in research that can help target scarce resources and demonstrate a clear return on investments in tourism activity.
