Data-driven research, the foundation to our approach

A detailed bespoke dataset is created for your business that provides a bedrock of evidence and facts about the organisations and their activities in the market. Delivered rapidly this gives you a consolidated source of intelligence that is orientated around your business.

We use our proprietary automated data mining processes combined with AI and machine learning to bring the power of research driven by big data to your business.

Primary research

We use a wide range of primary research methods that involve direct engagement using qualitative and quantitative techniques such as surveys, interviews, focus groups, observational research or case studies.

Secondary research

Collating and reviewing the body of evidence from what others have already researched before us saves time and establishes the current thinking. Well evidenced work does not need to be re-done and corroborates information in the data-driven and primary research. It sits between the two techniques in terms of cost and speed and can provide a full range of both qualitative and quantitative evidence.

Analysis

We apply a wide range of analytic methods to extract intelligence from the research including numerical and statistical analysis, investigative analysis, analysis of competing hypotheses, reductive analysis and bottom up/top down analysis.
