Background and Discussion:

The Office of County Administration - Research and Analysis Division will use SAS statistical software to prepare and analyze large datasets to more efficiently produce reports, complete visualizations, and come up with data-informed recommendations.

 

Expected Impact:

Increasing the OCA-RAD team’s capability to analyze large datasets and produce meaningful recommendations based on data.

 

Alternative Options:

Not having SAS statistical software will impact the OCA-RAD’s ability to efficiently analyze large datasets and produce meaningful recommendations. Some datasets received by the OCA-RAD team have millions of rows, which the team cannot analyze without a software like SAS.

 

Alignment with Goal(s):

_ Justice and Safety

_ Economic Opportunity

_ Housing

_ Public Health

_ Transportation

_ Flooding

_ Environment

X Governance and Customer Service
