We deliver mixed-method research that generates an accessible evidence base to impact policy, inform operational practice and contribute to programme development.
Our work packages are tailored to individual clients, organisations and their outcomes with a focus on both process and impact assessment.
Literature and Policy ReviewS
We undertake desk-based literature reviews and policy analysis utilising access to online academic journals and databases.
Qualitative Research
We specialise in the use of a range of methods including interviews, focus groups and case studies to highlight the importance of nuanced, narrative accounts.
Mixed-method Research
Programme objectives and outcomes are unique and often require a combination of research methods to evaluate them. Our work incorporates quantitative research including primary data generation and secondary data analysis.
ADVICE & CONSULTATION
We carry out internal, operational reviews and stakeholder consultations. Our expertise ensures we can provide support with organisation ‘self-evaluation’ including data monitoring and performance analysis.
