Economic and Decision Sciences place a strong emphasis on quantitative methods: mathematical modeling, data collection and management, statistical analysis, and quantitative evaluation of alternative resource management decisions. This allows one to find project solutions in new methods and emerging data that were previously perceived as out of reach.  These tools also can enhance project predictability, transparency, and efficiency.

Todd Williams, President and Division Manager, addressed the firm recently, stating, "By embedding decision science experts within the firm, Cardno ENTRIX is able to apply environmental expertise to a suite of business decisions, project planning, and execution tools. By making informed, quantitative decisions and executing projects in a consistent, predictable manner, our clients are able to realize significant project savings."

The Economic and Decision Sciences business line is a natural extension of the firm's existing economic services and business solutions and risk management services. Cardno ENTRIX has the technical expertise to help organizations improve decision-making by collecting the right data, interpreting it with quantitative tools, and working with science communicators so that the analytical results are understood and useful for project stakeholders. The Cardno ENTRIX teams work collaboratively to provide a clear picture of how our quantitative services can maximize opportunities and limit liabilities.

Economic and Decision Sciences is a key pillar for the strategic vision of Cardno ENTRIX. To learn how the Economic and Decision Sciences experts can help your business determine the financial, social, and economic effects and tradeoffs among different natural resource and environmental management strategies, or how the strategic application of project management tools can improve your bottom line, please visit our website www.cardnoentrix.com.
