Economic Development Report Design

A leading economic development agency

We are a leading economic development agency located in Western Canada. We have clients across the country ranging from small to large communities and various government agencies and organizations.

We develop specific strategies to enhance economic development with communities and regions. We do this in a number of ways including assessing a community's investment readiness. We also develop short and long term plans and strategies for growth.

The target of this project will be various stakeholders within a community including business and government.

We have completed a number of specific assessments but now feel that the report design could be upgraded and enhanced substantially making it look totally different from what it currently is. The report is information sensitive and confidential and the design may need to reflect that. There currently is little use of images with only the front page having an image of the community the report is for.

The design must be in Microsoft Word since we will be constantly updating the information for other communities. Any other design program would not allow us the flexibility of changing the data and information in the report. When we complete a report we send to our printer in a pdf - currently the report is printed in a "magazine" type format.

We are open to all changes in design and printing formats. The text will not change substantially in the Project Overview and Sections A, B, C, D, E, F, and G. The next sections including all Appendices may change substantially depending on the community.

Attached is the most current report we have completed. I have provided it in Word and in pdf formats.
