Site Selection Advisory

Location Analysis and Applicable Government Incentive Programs

In the critical stages of facility relocation planning, too often the efficiencies of the local labor pool, and the state and local tax burden upon companies is not fully considered until several years of painful, hard-learned lessons. The critical difference between success and failure in commercial real estate transactions is the negotiation leverage that can be gained from a thorough understanding of key market demographics: e.g., a profile of the local labor pool and the ability to identify and tap all available public sector incentives. Qualification for incentives involves strategic positioning of the company, not just a “check-off list” review against a government agency’s established criteria. If a poorly positioned company fails to qualify for lucrative incentives it has no recourse.

UGL Equis launched a Site Selection & Incentives Consulting Service to address these critical shortfalls common among our competitors in the transaction process. The practice blends facility solutions with highly specialized location advisory services to eliminate the guess work about where to go, and more importantly why. Through a “single provider” integrated approach, UGL Equis clients are assured of receiving “single-point-of-contact” representation throughout transaction and economic incentives negotiation. The methodology also ensures that the location selection has an abundant and optimal labor pool and that all available tax credits are identified and secured.

The proven and highly effective Location Advisory and Incentive Consulting Process includes an:
  • Assessment of pertinent site-selection factors to meet client business goals

  • Development of a “short list” of preferred locations and a sound negotiation strategy

  • Analysis of the cost of doing business among sites under consideration

  • Implementation of a request for proposal (RFP) to economic development authorities

  • Managing on-going award benefits throughout the term of the benefit program
