How EconoVue™ Can Improve Your Process

EconoVue™ provides unique access to premier employer, industry and workforce data – at users’ fingertips so they can ask and answer with the click of the mouse. EconoVue users have a breadth and depth of data, agility and insight that provides a clearer picture of the past and present, for a more reliable window into the future.

Economies are built on the workforce (the people), the employers (the businesses) and location (the “where”). Government agencies, departments, consultants and analysts are challenged daily to analyze the past, define the present, and predict the future.

Where will jobs be? Which companies will fail and who will succeed? How to help struggling businesses and support those who are growing? What industries are rising and falling? When will those changes occur? Where is our workforce today, and where will it be needed tomorrow? How do we plan for future labor needs, and the transportation infrastructure to meet them?
