We use an array of approaches from the fields of modeling and simulation, data analysis, AI, geospatial analysis, strategic economics and computational finance to help our sponsors develop a deep, causal understanding of the dynamics of their problems and identify and evaluate potential interventions in rigorous, intuitive, and analytically defensible ways.

We specialize in building deployable tools that allow sponsors to interact directly with models to develop intuition and explore causality within their domains. Our department works to solve modeling and analytic problems in the public interest, in partnership with the government. We also actively conduct independent research in critical areas of national importance to our government partners. We offer the opportunity to interact directly with government leaders in a fast-paced and dynamic atmosphere with the ability to make a difference and impact outcomes with solid analysis.
