July, 2026
Here is July 2026 EconoVue Newsletter. EconoVue is pleased to announce another product enhancement. It is a new research tool – NAICS/O*NET LOOKUP, available across all four modules. We also highlight three unique use cases with broader goals than workforce development. Yet these are relevant to every workforce region:
Sourcing Local Businesses for Buy Local Initiative: As part of a Buy Local initiative, a County workforce board was asked to assist in identifying local businesses. These local businesses could provide commodities and goods. They would replace those currently purchased from “out of county” vendors.
Building Clustered Business Outreach Strategies: A workforce board launched a business walk program. They wanted to cluster businesses around a specific address or corridor. Alternatively, their goal was to identify industry-specific groups for the Business Service Teams.
Employer Outreach for Occupational Safety Campaign: Another workforce board needed to proactively engage employers in high-hazard sectors, such as agriculture, forestry, and farming, to provide occupational safety training.

EconoVue™ is your window to business and workforce insight.
Founded in Silicon Valley in 1999, and now based in Arlington, VA, EconoVue, Inc. is a woman-owned small business with a single mission: to help our clients visualize data and gain actionable insight into the past, present and future of their local and regional economies and workforce.
Originally founded as The Urban Explorer, Inc, a boutique consulting firm designing interactive GIS tools for economic development, land use planning and urban design, we heard a common theme from our customers: “Help us analyze today and help us predict tomorrow.” We found ourselves replicating the same steps of geospatial economic analysis studies, so rather than reinvent the wheel every time, we decided to invent it just once and automate the process via a single platform, and EconoVue™ was born.
The millions of businesses that comprise the U.S. economy and workforce are constantly in motion. Our agile approach to solution design is highly collaborative with the “end-user”, constantly evolving to meet the growing needs and creativity of our clients as they try to extract insight from data chaos.
Working with our data partners, public sources and our great collaborative clients, we continue to expand EconoVue™ to meet new needs, including Economic Development, Transportation and Custom Analysis. Our design philosophy is to produce innovative, actionable data insight tools, in a modular application platform that is iterative and easily adaptive to meet the ever-changing information needs of our clients.
