Regulatory Strategy & Expert Testimony
Strategic positioning and expert witness support for rate cases, regulatory proceedings, and policy development—translating complex customer data into clear narratives grounded in affordability and equity outcomes.
The Challenge
Regulatory proceedings demand more than analysis. They require credible evidence, strategic framing, and arguments that resonate with decision-makers.
Whether advancing affordability policy, responding to discovery, or preparing expert testimony, organizations must translate complex data into defensible, persuasive positions—often under tight timelines.
Our Approach
Hawks Peak integrates customer-centered research with regulatory strategy to build arguments that are both analytically rigorous and grounded in lived experience.
We focus on:
- Clear narrative development
- Evidence-backed positioning
- Alignment between policy intent and implementation realities
- Affordability and equity implications
- Strategic preparation from pre-filing through testimony
Every engagement is structured to strengthen credibility, clarify positioning, and support measurable regulatory outcomes.
