ULI and the Southeast Florida Regional Climate Change Compact have selected AECOM as the primary economic modeling consultant for our new project, The Business Case for Resilience for Southeast Florida.
As the result of a competitive RFP process, AECOM has been selected as the economic modeling consultant for the Business Case for Resilience in Southeast Florida Project. This project, led by ULI’s Urban Resilience Program and ULI Southeast Florida and Caribbean District Council in partnership with the Southeast Florida Regional Climate Change Compact, will analyze the regional economic impacts of sea level rise and flooding, as well as potential economic opportunities associated with investments in resilience infrastructure. The project will also provide recommendations for an economic resilience strategy and serve as a key tool for better understanding and advancing climate adaptation efforts throughout the region.
The conducted analysis will occur this winter and spring, with an announcement of findings planned for April 2020.
