Economic, Financial, and Regulatory Analysis

The Technology Planning & Deployment group is nationally recognized for the experience and expertise in analyzing complex socioeconomic and environmental issues on a regional, national, and global scale. We conduct macro- and micro-economic analysis, forecasting, and product market penetration analysis. Impact analysis of policies and technology insertion help policy makers examine possible future interactions of important economic variables under various policy scenarios. We are equipped and experienced at using the latest computer modeling tools that include computable general equilibrium models, input-output models, and mixed econometric models.

Our capability also include expertise in assessing life cycle costs, cost vs benefit, SWOT, the value of natural resources and environmental damage, using methods such as contingent valuation, hedonic analysis, ecological economics, and benefits transfer and determining key financial ratios and recommendations.
