After the Pandemic, Nevada’s Department of Employment and Training and Rehabilitation (DETR) recognized they needed to change how they did business to improve employer outreach.
DETR’s program first focused on how best to serve unemployed veterans, specifically veterans with significant barriers to employment. There was a dual responsibility to pinpoint the right career pathway for the veteran and quickly identify businesses more likely to hire those with significant barriers to employment.
With the early momentum from the veterans’ job placement program, the State increased program efficiency and effectiveness across other programs requiring employer engagement, including rapid response, local job fairs, and proactive business outreach.

EconoVue™ is your window to business and workforce insight. The Urban Explorer, Inc. is the company behind the insight.
Founded in Silicon Valley in 1999, and now based in Arlington, VA, The Urban Explorer, 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 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.
