We offer timely, place-based business intelligence on local conditions and the impact of government policies and programs on the ground.

These insights can inform policy and program delivery by: 

  • sharing business experiences in near real-time, including during natural disasters, supply chain disruptions and other business continuity events
  • illustrating data trends with compelling real-life examples
  • sharing what businesses have already told us on particular topics, reducing duplicate efforts.
