Site Due Diligence

Site Selection Process
Regional Analysis Using GIS – Focus on attraction and aversion factors
• Attraction – Desirable labor force figures– Educational attainment targets– Proximity to interstates, airports, universities– Etc.
• Aversion– Presence of union activity– Federal class one areas (national parks, national
wilderness areas, national monuments)wilderness areas, national monuments)– Non-attainment areas for criteria pollutants– Environmental (hurricanes, tornados, earthquakes)– Etc.
GIS Screening

Why GIS
GIS is a quantitative tool that is useful in producing objective and defendable results
Companies are very deadline driven– Time allotted for siting decisions has been
compressed resulting in more use of GIS• Has influenced the process of site selection
– Communities are being evaluated without anyone knowing
• Assists with determining areas of interest– Prior to any consideration of site or building
Representative GIS Data Sources
Data sources often used in screening:– Bureau of Labor Statistics– Environmental Protection Agency– Federal Aviation Administration– National Center for Education Statistics– National Climatic Data Center– National Labor Relations Board– National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration– National Right-to-Work Defense Foundation– National Transportation Atlas Database– U.S. Army Corp of Engineers– U.S. Census Bureau
U S Coast Guard– U.S. Coast Guard– U.S. Department of the Interior– U.S. Department of Labor– U.S. Department of Transportation– U.S. Geological Survey

Case Scenario - Auto Diversity, Inc.
Auto Diversity, Inc. has just developed a newwidget that can be used in all makes of cars andlight trucks.
Location Requirements or “Musts”– Must fall within a designated search region of states– First plant must be within 100 miles of an existing
automotive or light-truck facility

Closing Comments
The GIS screening process assists with identifying areas warranting further review (Areas of Interest)
GIS is a tool used in the process and not a decision-making instrument
