How these figures are made
- — Synthetic demonstration data. Generated businesses, not real records — it shows how the same model composes at scale and says nothing about any real community.
- — Answers from any group of fewer than three businesses in one municipality that did not agree to be named are left out of every figure, at every level. Every figure is therefore a floor, and no figure can be subtracted from another to reveal a small group.
- — Role counts are people reported per kind of work. A person who does two kinds of work is counted in each, so the total is role positions, not employment.
- — Available capacity is each business’s own estimate, kept as bands. It is not a measured utilisation rate, and no average is taken across bands.
- — Reach is where businesses say they normally serve. It is not evidence of sales or market share in those places.
- — Composed from business-level observations for Saskatchewan: each business counted once, in the one municipality it operates from, and every level above it — division, region, province — is the sum of the level below. No municipal or provincial summary is stored anywhere.
- — Coverage denominator: Synthetic business population generated alongside the answers.
- Assembled in 4 ms · synthetic dataset generated once in 62 ms
How businesses’ answers are used
Count my answers in community economic totals. Your answers are added into totals for your community, your region and Saskatchewan. They are never shown against your business name, and any total that could point to you is withheld.
Show what my business can do on its OEX record. Your kinds of work, main resources, capabilities and where you serve appear on your business’s public OEX record. How much more work you could take on is never shown against your name.
If you choose neither, OEX keeps your answers for you alone. They are not counted and not shown, and you can change this at any time.
