The report also continues a long-standing research effort to evaluate the region’s aerospace industry at approximately 5-year intervals.
The 2020 report provides a detailed economic evaluation of the Greater Oklahoma City area aerospace industry from several perspectives. The report’s key tasks are to:
1. Provide a listing of all aerospace establishments operating in the Greater OKC region;
2. Prepare a detailed economic profile of the firms comprising the region’s aerospace sector;
3. Examine growth in the aerospace industry since the release of the 2015 report;
4. Evaluate the major aerospace employers in the region, including both public and private entities;
5. Examine the size and composition of the aerospace labor force in the region;
6. Compare the size and structure of Oklahoma’s aerospace industry to competing states;
7. Evaluate federal contracting activity related to aerospace by vendors in the region; and
8. Prepare an assessment of the economic impacts the aerospace industry generates across the Greater Oklahoma City region.},

abstract = {Report Objective and Structure.
In assessing the various changes resulting from MAPS, this evaluation pursues three basic underlying tasks:
1. Update the prior evaluation of the original MAPS projects provided in the 2009 report, particularly the contribution of MAPS to change in downtown Oklahoma City;
2. Provide an initial review of the mostly completed MAPS for Kids projects; and
3. Detail MAPS 3 initiatives completed or currently underway and the role these projects are expected to play in shaping future growth in Oklahoma City.
The report documents the activities of the MAPS projects but is more focused on the resulting changes in the demographic, workforce, lifestyle, and economic conditions enjoyed by residents of Oklahoma City. The MAPS projects are viewed as the clear catalyst behind the revitalization underway in downtown Oklahoma City. These public investments in turn triggered significant private development in housing, lodging, retail, office space, and recreational offerings. Each major area of visible change is evaluated throughout the report.
A final, though more informal, task pursued throughout the report is the development of a more integrated view of the three rounds of MAPS projects approved to date. The number and breadth of projects and the length of time over which they have transpired warrants a more comprehensive view of MAPS as a single, ongoing economic development effort that now extends twenty-five years.
