How PEM can be used in state and local government
-
A Department of Budget official, within a U.S. state, is required to provide input on the state's budget and resource allocation plans.
-
Industry/state lock down and re-opening decisions are within the state's jurisdiction so can somewhat be controlled, but neighboring state and federal policy decisions cannot.
-
To enable preparedness and appropriate scenario planning, the official accesses PEM and within minutes understands the impact on neighboring states, as well as:
-
Which industry generates the most recouped tax revenue for the state at various phased re-opening scenarios.
-
Each $1 of GDP restored and the additional indirect and induced GDP created.
-
Each job restored and the number of additional indirect and induced jobs it generates.
