“Entergy is proud to provide our economic development partners with this new and enhanced Site Selection Center,” said Paula Waters, vice president, sales and business development services at Entergy. “We are committed to fostering economic growth in our region, and we know this new website will assist in driving viable businesses and industries to the region.”
Designed to meet the modern needs of economic development allies, the Site Selection Center is an easy-to-use platform with robust search and property management functionality. Playing an integral role in Entergy’s recent recognition by Site Selection magazine as one of the nation’s Top 10 utilities in economic development for the 10th consecutive year, the revamped site uses a combination of geographic information system technology, business analysis and demographic data to give users the ability to quickly access available commercial sites and resources within Entergy’s region.
Originally launched in 2008, the Site Selection Center quickly became an important tool used by economic developers, site selection consultants and businesses throughout the country. After the combination of years of experience gathering data and feedback from partners, Entergy’s new Site Selection Center is updated to include some of the following enhanced features:
*sophisticated property search options with advanced filtering capabilities and data exports;
*demographic and business data, Esri, which allows customers to view data by drive-time, radius, polygon, parish, region, state and more;
*simple property listing tools like full previews, enhanced multimedia management and a “quality score” summary to measure listing completeness; and
*additional new features like providing enhanced property details, creating and saving search alerts and the ability to create private listings.
