As support to these services, IBM-PLI has developed industry leading tools and databases, such as: IBM-PLI's Location Benchmarking Tool allows to quickly identify the best locations for operations based on project specific location requirements. The tool helps analyze the cost and quality trade-off and relative strengths and weaknesses of locations, as well as evaluating the impact of possible changes in business environments over time. EDOs/IPAs also use the benchmarking tool to assess their location's competitiveness for selected target sectors and functions. The Global Investment Locations Database (GILD) is the leading corporate investment tracking database, registering 'mobile' investment projects around the world and allowing representative and up-to-date location trend analysis on a global scale. Being the most comprehensive and accurate global investment database in the market, GILD provides unrivalled insight into global trends in corporate location decision making. Global Location Trends reports are prepared based on analysis of data from IBM's proprietary Global Investment Locations Database (GILD). These reports present and analyze the latest trends in corporate location selection around the world, and are the most realistic and up-to-date reflection of expansion and relocation behavior of companies, as well as the degree in which countries and regions around the world are successful in attracting new business. Based on the extensive experience working directly with investors, IBM-PLI consultants offer unique expertise to economic development organizations (EDO) and investment promotion agencies (IPA). Services include location benchmarking and competitive positioning analysis, investment trend analysis using GILD, effective investment promotion strategies, economic impact analysis, marketing strategies and tools, analysis and advice on EDO/IPA organization effectiveness, decision making training for EDO/IPA staff, and location intelligence on demand.
