Modeling the Regional Economic Impacts of Policies and Investments
REACT is an economic impact analysis model that applies an input-output structure to enable our clients and partners to deliver a high-quality, comprehensive and tailored quantitative assessment of how local and regional economies will react to changes in policy, investment, or industry activity.
The model is a cost-effective option for collaborators and clients to efficiently and accurately conduct impact studies that estimate direct, indirect, induced and total economic impacts for a wide range of policy, investment and industry initiatives and scenarios.
Designed for both in-house use by Cambridge Econometrics and for collaborators and clients to conduct their own impact studies, REACT offers new insights on the ever-changing and complex landscape of US economic policy.

Economic Impact Assessments with REACT
REACT builds on Cambridge Econometrics’ 40 years of regional economic modeling expertise to develop a world-class, cost effective input-output economic impact tool, with an integrated framework of employment, income (wages), output and value added by detailed industry sector.
The model generates results on the supply chain impacts (known as indirect) and the effects of the re-spending of wages and income (known as induced) to estimate total economic impacts (known as multiplier effects). It can also estimate state-level tax revenue impacts.
