Implan3

Implan3 by MIG (Minnesota IMPLAN Group) is a desktop economic impact modeling application that helps analysts quantify how changes in spending, employment, or production ripple through regional economies. Built on input-output and social accounting matrix frameworks, it translates user-defined scenarios into estimates of direct, indirect, and induced effects across hundreds of industries.

Key capabilities:

• Regional modeling with annually updated datasets sourced from trusted federal agencies, including the BEA, BLS, and the U.S. Census Bureau
• Results for employment, labor income, value added, output, and tax impacts
• Custom study areas by combining multiple geographies (for example, counties or states)
• Regional purchase coefficients (RPCs) and trade flow controls to better reflect local supply chains
• Tools to adjust industry spending patterns, margins, and deflators, plus side-by-side scenario comparisons
• Clear reporting with tables and charts suited for stakeholders and publication

Implan3 is used by economic development organizations, public agencies, consultants, utilities, and researchers to evaluate projects, assess policy alternatives, analyze supply chains, and communicate the full economic significance of investments and programs.
