ECO works with a broad range of public agencies, non-profit and community groups, and private businesses to enhance their ability to effectively reach their goals; sustainably interact with their respective business, regulatory, political, and natural environments; and create opportunities for growth and development. We understand the challenges and opportunities faced by the public sector and market-based businesses. Since 1983, ECO has helped public sector clients incorporate appropriate business management techniques and flexibility while maintaining public trust, transparency and regulatory responsibilities. We promote and develop learning systems in formerly rigid bureaucracies, and catalyze collaborative, practical solutions involving diverse stakeholders, elected officials, agency management and staff and the general public. ECO has helped private sectors clients (including aerospace, engineering, oil, technology, real estate, energy, tourism, hotels, and construction) leverage opportunities for organizational change, work effectively with regulatory agencies and local communities, and define the fundamental requirements for sustainability.
