A style guide is a set of standards that helps writers create consistent documents. It provides rules for formatting, punctuation, citations, and language use. Style guides help ensure all documents from an organization look professional and are easy to read. The Chicago Manual of Style is one of the most widely used style guides in the United States. It provides clear guidelines for writing technical reports and memos and is a valuable resource for researchers and planners who need to produce clear, professional documents.

The editorial style followed at our agency is based on the rules in The Chicago Manual of Style and supplemented by an in-house style guide.
