Strategic site selection to optimize your investment.

Our Approach

Data-driven analysis to inform your next project

01.

Defined Site Needs

We begin our comprehensive market identification process by understanding each company’s unique needs and preferences. Beyond core business factors such as supply chain requirements, labor availability, overall tax burden, utility costs, and real estate expenses, we also account for the personal considerations that shape a location decision, from school districts to daycare access. This comprehensive view allows us to identify and compare potential markets that align with what matters most to your business and your team.

02.

Comprehensive Market Identification

We conduct a comprehensive market identification process, evaluating the taxes, labor, incentives, and supply chain availability by industry. This also includes a close assessment of physical, legal, and financial considerations to determine the feasibility and suitability of each potential market. By identifying suitable markets and considering all relevant variables, we compile a data-driven analysis that empowers the company to make an informed decision.

03.

Site Comparison

With a narrowed list of potential markets, we build a side-by-side comparison of what each site offers, such as the anticipated costs, speed-to-market timeline (greenfield construction versus speculative building), and the flexibility for future expansion. As our analysis is independent and data-driven, we have no subjective state in which location you choose. Our only goal is helping you find the site that’s right for your business.

04.

Incentives Analysis & Negotiation

Once the target locations are selected, we begin the incentive negotiation process on your behalf, working to secure the strongest possible package of federal, state, and local credits and incentives to maximize your project investment.
