Strategic Partnerships D3 has a track record of collaboration with foundations, non profits, and city partners (Skillman Foundation, Kresge Foundation, NNIP, MNA, Detroit Future City). This indicates potential upsell opportunities around data products, dashboards, and impact reporting for grantSeeker programs and multi-stakeholder initiatives.

Growth Through Talent Recent hiring activity and a visible expansion mindset (Senior Analyst / Project Lead hire) suggest an openness to new data capabilities, analytics services, and project-based engagements that can scale with client demand in neighborhood indicators, urban analytics, and housing data.

Data Tool Ecosystem D3 relies on modern web and analytics tech (React, WordPress, Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel) and specialized data tools (State of the Child Data Tool). This points to opportunities in analytics enhancements, data visualization, website analytics, and tool integration services.

Equity and Accessibility Their mission emphasizes unbiased, accessible information and they have partnered on racial leadership and housing studies. This aligns with services for equitable data reporting, community indicators, and inclusive policy dashboards that appeal to funders and city agencies.

Funding and Scale With revenue in the 1M to 10M range and connections to statewide networks, D3 is positioned for project-based engagements, SaaS-like data platforms, and expandable analytics programs that leverage existing partnerships and grant-funded initiatives.
