Economic Impact Assessments for Industry Associations
Show the Power of Your Industry
Your industry drives jobs, innovation, investment, and regional growth. But without data to prove it, your voice can be lost in the noise. A credible Economic Impact Assessment (EIA) gives you the evidence you need to influence policy, strengthen advocacy, and demonstrate value to your stakeholders. EIAs help you:
- Strengthen Advocacy: Quantify your industry’s total economic footprint – including GDP, employment, tax revenue, and supply chain effects – to shape public policy and support funding requests.
- Build Member Value: Offer members a powerful resource they can use in their own business development and engagement with decision-makers.
- Support Communications and PR: Use EIA findings to develop media stories, social campaigns, and annual reports that highlight the industry’s relevance and impact.
- Guide Strategy and Investment: Inform your board and strategic planning process with data on sector growth, risks, and opportunities.
- Defend Against Threats: Respond to regulatory or economic challenges with a rigorous, data-driven case for your industry’s importance.

Insights Focused
We build compelling and defensible narratives that resonate with your audience by zeroing in on the questions you need answered and applying our best practice methods to answer them.

Our models are all built to best practice and informed by subject matter experts at Statistics Canada and other statistical agencies.

Unlike other EIA providers, we are committed to building capacity with our clients by sharing our knowledge. We are excellent at explaining complex economic concepts in simple, easy-to-understand ways and routinely train our clients on how to use our models and apply them in their work. Our economic models are all designed to be highly transparent, “open box” models rather than “black box” models, allowing you to gain the trust and confidence of your stakeholders.
