What should our board know before the next meeting?
A briefing for the people who decide, with every figure sourced.
Use cases
Start with the question your team is trying to answer.
MIQ Studio takes on the recurring analysis economic development and workforce teams do: the briefing, the profile, the comparison, the review. Pick the question closest to yours.

Compare your region with the places you compete with, with the basis stated.
Can our workforce support this employer's expansion?

Test a request before it goes to council.
Six jobs, one product
Every use case is an application of the same MIQ Studio. Whatever the question, the work is one of six jobs: understand your market, compare places, understand an industry, understand people and workforce, produce something defensible, and know when something changes.
Every use case works the same way.
Every figure carries its source and the period it covers. Where the evidence does not support a conclusion, MIQ says so. You review, verify and own the work before it is published.
