Our expertise comes from decades of experience.
100
Collectively, we are very old. Our senior staff have over 100 years of collective experience in serving clients and carrying out projects in a wide range of fields. Our longevity and dedication has allowed us to build trust with our clients and provide them with the best services.
Our staff are adaptive to change. From being in the business for many years, we have endured changes in technology, expectations, and core business practices. This is a testament of our abilities to embrace the new. Although we have specialized teams, we encourage our staff to get involved in as many areas of consulting as possible so that they can adapt to a wide range of assignments.
Our strength is based in the diversity of our people.
All of our reports are internally reviewed by a diverse set of colleagues. We use a senior member or associate of our firm (either Partner or Principal), who is not directly engaged in the evaluation assignment, to review all drafts and final reports.
We walk the talk.
Change is inevitable.
A key objective of our model is to continuously improve our processes, formats, materials, and tracking systems. These improvements are incorporated into our business to extend and deepen our competitive advantages.
We embrace positive change and encourage our staff to participate in yearly business planning activities through which we solicit feedback, focus on positive change and ideas, and identify challenges for growth and ways to implement the changes while minimizing disruption in our services.
Our staff have the tenacity, endurance and passion needed to fulfill our collective vision and adapt to the changing needs of our clients and changing world. We have successfully implemented new technologies in our data collection practices, introduced flexible work environments, and continuously enhanced our business practices.
We use new technologies to collect qualitative data.

Our capabilities in survey methodology and digital design, and use of interactive data collection platforms and applications, ensures that we meet the requirements of our clients and are able to conduct large scale surveys, including surveys with hard-to-reach groups, within the available budget and stipulated time frames.High cost-efficiency does not mean low quality.
