The Accomack‑Northampton Planning District Commission is seeking a qualified consultant to develop an updated Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) for Virginia’s Eastern Shore.

Budget estimate

$150,000 – $300,000

Based on typical consulting fees for regional economic development strategy updates, a full‑service consultant could command anywhere from $150,000 to $300,000, depending on the depth of analysis, stakeholder engagement, and deliverable complexity. The lower end assumes a modest scope with limited data collection, while the higher end reflects extensive modeling, multiple workshops, and a comprehensive implementation roadmap.
