Impact assessments
We have substantial experience in conducting economic and social impact assessments to support funding and planning applications, as well as to demonstrate impacts to funders and wider stakeholders
ERS’ impact assessments have supported developments worth in excess of £3 billion, have helped to secure hundreds of millions of pounds in grant and loan funding and have informed policy nationally and locally.
ERS impact assessments have helped shape policy, supported funding applications, informed the appraisal of funding bids and assisted clients to secure (or have refused) planning permission.
Our approach to social and economic impact assessment is in line with industry standards and our team is fully conversant with HMT Green Book and Magenta Book guidance.
