Product Introduction:
DEALS® is the leading edge web-enabled decision support software that corporate executives, economic developers, and their services providers use to assess,
model, and negotiate capital investment projects. The DEALS® software program and the method of using it are covered by US Patent Number 7,640,196.
- A good decision-making tool was not available before
the introduction of DEALS. Project teams often were frustrated, overwhelmed,
or at least unsure that they were making the optimal decision. Decisions
and deal making were cumbersome, confusing, and expensive. DEALS solves
these problems.
- DEALS greatly reduces time, trims expenses, and streamlines
the capital investment decision-making process. With this on-line decision
support software, project teams quickly and efficiently can determine
decision choices, model their financial results, and track project negotiations
under alternative location and transaction scenarios.
- The flexibility of DEALS enables the user to compare,
contrast, and evaluate choices based on either existing facts or "what
if" changes in business plans, market conditions, project specifications,
and a location’s cost structure, incentive packages, statutes,
and regulations. This provides the critical insight to make the optimal
decision.
- Also, DEALS helps EDAs analyze their locations from
a business perspective to determine their competitive strengths and
weaknesses. This enables EDAs to fine-tune business attraction and retention
efforts.
- Based on a subscriber’s unique business priorities,
DEALS helps a company or EDA arrive at the optimal decision using objective,
quantifiable information about that company's business needs and the
candidate locations' attributes. DEALS can model the start-up and future
costs of the different alternatives and can calculate the impact of
any offered or desired economic incentives.
- With DEALS, the market now has interactive software
and user support that combines DEALTEK's or the subscriber’s databases,
DEALTEK’s powerful analytical models, and the subscriber’s
own decision objectives, project criteria, and weighting preferences.
This software enables the subscriber internally to better define its
business venture or project requirements, analyze the strategic fit
of alternative scenarios, and determine their optimal start-up and operating
results.
