Dig Deep Research is your long-term strategic advisor for navigating the complex world of water, wastewater, and stormwater infrastructure funding. We help you think years ahead, not just project by project, crafting comprehensive strategies that maximize every funding opportunity. We aren’t a grant writing provider.
Dig Deep helps secure the right funding, at the right time, for the right projects—so you can serve your community best.
Who We Serve
-
Communities ready to invest in a multi-year strategic partnership.
You don’t know what you don’t know. We look at the entire funding landscape—federal, state, local, and loan programs—to create interconnected strategies that build on each other over time.
-
Leaders who think beyond individual projects.
Real funding success comes from understanding how today’s decisions impact tomorrow’s opportunities. We help you play the long game.
Who We Don't Serve
-
Organizations looking for quick fixes or one-time consulting.
We aren’t for everyone. We specialize in building lasting strategic partnerships that create sustained funding success over years, not months. Our approach requires trust, collaboration, and commitment to long-term relationship building.
-
Someone just looking for a grant writer.
The Grant Professional Association is a fantastic resource for finding grant writers.
-
Engineering firms seeking a teaming arrangement.
Sorry. This usually doesn’t align with the clients’ best interests.
What Makes Us Different
More Than Funding: Your Infrastructure Intelligence Partner
Think of us as your infrastructure funding intelligence partner. We stay current on changing regulations, emerging opportunities, and political shifts so you don’t have to. When new programs launch, we’re already preparing your strategy.
Strategic Thinking for Long-Term Success
While others focus on individual funding opportunities, we develop multi-year funding strategies that leverage relationships, timing, and creative problem-solving to maximize your success.
Relationship Building That Pays Dividends
We don’t just know the programs—we know the people. Our network of relationships with funding agencies means opportunities often come to us (and you) first.
Creative Solutions You Won’t Find Elsewhere
Need to fund stormwater improvements? We’ve helped clients bundle them with wastewater projects for better rates. Every challenge is an opportunity for innovative thinking.
The Best ROI in the Business
Our clients typically see a 100% return within 18 months, a 300% return within 2 years, and a 600% return within 3 years—while saving critical resources in the fundraising process.
“What separates Dig Deep from the crowd is their ability to strategize around highly complex and technical infrastructure and community planning projects.”
“This firm is the only one able to provide this unique set of services that provide value +++ to building and infrastructure clients.”
“Dig Deep is the most knowledgeable group of people I have met regarding funding options. Their biggest assets are their intimate knowledge of the grant world and their winning ability to network with funding agencies so the agencies are not only aware of, but become advocates for, the city’s needs.”
“We may well have given up pursuing funding opportunities during the process had it not been for Dig Deep. They knew the rules and regulations better than some government employees! Our investment in Dig Deep was money well spent with an outstanding ROI!”
“Dig Deep’s ability to help clients secure millions in funding has resulted in rapid growth and has positioned the company as a leader in the space.”
“Tia’s professional tenacity and personal touch is rare, as is her insight into the dynamic grant world.”
