Through the use of SRC's Alteryx® geographic business intelligence software development platform, Jones Lang LaSalle ensures its clients have access to leading-edge analytical information in making global labor force and site-selection decisions. The announcement was made at SRC's Extend 09 Conference at the Omni Interlocken Resort, in Broomfield, CO, where several of the nation's leading business strategists, from companies like D&B, Buxton, and Experian, are meeting this week to share examples of best practices deployed with SRC's technology. "Strategic analytics are key to Jones Lang LaSalle's commercial real estate site-selection process. We seek to bring best-in-class tools to assist clients in making location decisions that capitalize on opportunities and avoid risks," explained Dr. Wayne Gearey, vice president of Global Location Solutions at Jones Lang LaSalle. "We designed the Alteryx platform to enable rapid, transparent, and on-demand integration of spatial and non-spatial data into customized business intelligence applications and visualizations," said Dean Stoecker, CEO of SRC. "These services can be easily deployed across an enterprise and through the Web. Site-selection professionals use Alteryx to view and analyze any number of data sources available through a single, consistent, real-time and reliable reporting tool." The application accepts each client's unique strategic business requirements tailored specifically to their operational dependencies. From these requirements, a multitude of workforce population factors are analyzed and weighted by importance using many public, private and industry data sources to generate top market rankings, heat maps, and site-specific reports. These findings include detailed scoring tables and maps of scaled factors, such as job saturation rates, social and creative capital ranking, occupation-centric skills distribution, and educational preparedness breakdowns, all available at the click of a button. "This adds a dimension to our analytical intelligence and speed-to-market capabilities to ensure clients make optimal location decisions," added Dr. Gearey.
