Policy collaborations ECOnorthwest has a long track record of interdisciplinary public policy research with ongoing partnerships across states (Oregon, Washington, Montana, North Dakota, California). This suggests sales opportunities through joint research projects, contracted policy analysis, and expansion into new regional markets with public sector clients or foundations seeking evidence-based housing, land use, and social policy insights.

Housing and housing finance Recent news highlights collaborations around housing innovation, master planning, and missing middle housing workshops. Target opportunities include state agencies, housing authorities, and non-profits seeking data-driven housing supply analyses, implementation planning, and stakeholder engagement to address affordability and zoning reforms.

Public sector focus With experience advising policymakers and business leaders and a focus on equity in policy research, ECOnorthwest is well positioned to offer procurement-ready services to city, county, and regional governments, including cost-benefit analyses, impact evaluations, and policy scenario modeling.

Regional footprint offices in Portland, Seattle, Bend, Boise, and Los Angeles indicate ability to serve West Coast and Mountain states markets with local expertise, enabling faster delivery, relationships with local officials, and tailored insights for regional economic and housing dynamics.

Scale and partnerships Revenue range and multi-year collaborations (e.g., iSector housing analysis, partnerships with AARP, and housing finance agencies) point to opportunities for large-scale, multi-stakeholder projects, renewal strategies, and data-driven program evaluations that leverage ECOnorthwest’s established credibility and methodological rigor.
