At the heart of our socio-economic consulting services is a commitment to helping clients understand the social and economic dimensions of their operations, underpinned by dedication to collaboration, integrity, and timeliness.

We provide socio-economic research services to provide quantitative and qualitative analyses and insight that help clients understand and document the potential social and economic challenges and opportunities of their plans and projects. We assess potential impacts on local communities, economies, and the environment, from job creation and economic change to sustainability and social effects.

Coupling our economic modeling and social performance monitoring expertise we help clients navigate the regulatory landscape. We develop plans and actions designed to mitigate potential risks, and maximize the benefits of development projects, programs, and activities.

We leverage our inter-disciplinary expertise to provide integrated assessments of the economic, environmental, and social implications of climate change. We apply intersectional approaches to highlight differential effects related to gender, ethnicity, social status, age, and identify factors.

We are experienced in working and engaging with Indigenous communities, and with local and regional stakeholders from emergency and social service providers to local businesses, government, and civil society. We uncover community concerns and interests and identify how social factors (e.g., education, race, and gender) interact with economic factors (e.g., income, employment, and consumption).
