Services
Nine practices, one team of experienced researchers
From your first research question to a published paper — and, for organisations, from raw operational data to decisions you can act on.
Research Proposal Coaching
Guidance from research title to approved proposal.
We work alongside you as you build the proposal, session by session, not by handing you text to submit. By the end you can defend every choice in your methodology chapter because you made each one yourself, with an experienced researcher checking your logic at every step.
What's included
- Problem statement development
- Objectives and research questions
- Literature review strategy
- Methodology design
- Conceptual frameworks
Thesis & Dissertation Coaching
Chapter-by-chapter guidance to keep your thesis moving.
Whether you are stuck at chapter two or preparing for your final defence, we review your drafts, help you interpret supervisor feedback, and keep your argument coherent from introduction to conclusion, chapter by chapter until submission.
What's included
- Structure and argument review
- Methodology consulting
- Supervisor-feedback interpretation
- Defence preparation
Statistical Data Analysis Consulting
Expert support choosing and running the right analysis.
From cleaning a messy dataset to selecting the correct test and interpreting the output your supervisor will question, we guide you through the full analysis pipeline across the software you already use.
What's included
- SPSS, Stata, R, Python, Excel, Power BI, Tableau
- t-tests, ANOVA, regression, chi-square
- Non-parametric tests, factor analysis, SEM
- Multilevel models, survival analysis, and more
Monitoring & Evaluation
For NGOs and institutions.
We help NGOs and institutions design indicators, logical and results frameworks, and evaluation plans that satisfy donor and institutional review, backed by sound data-quality practice.
What's included
- Indicator development
- Logical frameworks
- Results frameworks
- Evaluation design
- Data quality assessment
Publication Support & Academic Writing
Coaching from finished thesis to published journal article.
Turning a 200-page thesis into a publishable manuscript is a distinct skill. We coach you through journal selection, restructuring, submission, and responding to peer reviewers so the published article is unmistakably yours.
What's included
- Journal selection and predatory-journal screening
- Thesis-to-article conversion
- Submission and cover letters
- Responding to peer reviewers
- Systematic and scoping review methods
- Policy briefs
Research Training
Practical workshops for individuals and institutions.
Our workshops are hands-on and project-based, for individuals building their own skills or institutions training a whole cohort, covering everything from SPSS basics to the ethical use of AI in research.
What's included
- SPSS
- Research methods
- Survey design
- Data collection
- Proposal writing
- Ethical AI use in research
Business Intelligence
Turning operational data into decisions leadership can act on.
We build the reporting layer your leadership team actually uses: a small number of metrics that matter, wired to your source systems and refreshed without anyone rebuilding a spreadsheet. Typical engagements run four to eight weeks from scoping to handover.
You receive a live dashboard, the underlying data model, and a handover session so your team can maintain it.
What's included
- Dashboard design and build in Power BI and Tableau
- KPI frameworks and performance reporting
- Automated reporting pipelines
- Data modelling and warehouse structuring
Market Research
Evidence for entering a market, launching a product, or setting a price.
Before you commit budget to a market, a product, or a price point, we put evidence behind the decision. We scope the question, run the fieldwork, and come back with a recommendation you can take to a board. Typical studies run three to six weeks depending on sample and geography.
You receive a written report with findings and recommendations, the cleaned dataset, and a presentation to your leadership team.
What's included
- Market sizing and segmentation
- Competitor and pricing analysis
- Customer and brand perception studies
- Concept and product testing
Data Collection
Field and digital data gathering, run to research standards.
We run fieldwork end to end, from instrument design through enumerator management to a validated dataset. Every project ships with quality controls built in: back-checks, GPS and timestamp audits, and daily monitoring while the team is in the field. Timelines depend on sample size and coverage, and are fixed before work begins.
You receive clean, validated data in your preferred format, full field documentation, and a data quality report.
What's included
- Survey instrument design and piloting
- Enumerator recruitment, training and supervision
- Mobile data collection using ODK, KoboToolbox and SurveyCTO
- Data quality assurance, back-checks and spot audits
