LET’S DEFINE THE DECISION.

Whether you are evaluating an investment, testing a service or technology before rollout, redesigning a research instrument, or trying to understand an urban pattern that existing data does not fully explain, begin with the decision you need to make.

Share a brief overview below. FUCA will review the inquiry and recommend the most appropriate next step, whether that is a focused advisory session or a larger research engagement.

WHAT TO INCLUDE

  • The decision: What are you trying to decide, allocate, implement, or understand?

  • What you already know: Existing data, prior research, forecasts, maps, surveys, or assumptions.

  • What remains unclear: The gap, risk, behavioral question, or uncertainty you need investigated.

  • Timing: Any relevant implementation, funding, planning, or decision deadline.

Not sure which project type fits? Select “Other” and describe the decision you’re facing.

PROJECT INQUIRY

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

Inquiries are reviewed within 48 hours. If an inquiry aligns with our advisory focus, the next step depends on your organization's immediate need:

  • Exploring a Full Project?

    Schedule a complimentary 15-minute scoping call to discuss your timeline, decision context, and deliverables for a custom Statement of Work.

    Schedule a Scoping Call (15 min) →

  • Need Immediate Technical or Method Guidance?

    Book a focused 60-minute session to review an existing dataset, audit survey variables, or clarify analytical next steps.

    Book an Advisory Session ($325) →

    (100% of the advisory fee is credited toward your project deposit if you retain Frye Urban Capital Advisors within 30 days.)

Engagements are scoped around the decision question, methods, geography, timeline, and deliverables. FUCA primarily uses fixed-fee, scope-based pricing rather than hourly billing.
