Policy research
Evaluating policy
Suppose you’re looking for an answer to a (policy-related) question. You either have data available about the underlying issue, or you still need to collect data, of either quantitative or qualitative nature.
In that case we are happy to discuss your requirements with you, look for the best possible approach, estimate the feasibility and costs, and will implement the project if you wish.
Our working method: a joint approach
Before we start the research process, we will first want to discuss the following topics with you:
- What is your research question?
- Is it clear how your question could be answered or is it necessary to refine your research question?
- Are the necessary data available or does the data still need to be collected?
- In what format should the findings be made available?
- How actively do you want to be involved with the research and in what role?
- What expertise do we offer with regard to your research question?
- Planning for the quotation and research process.
We will start the research project as soon as you let us know that you are happy with our proposal. As a minimum, we will meet all our obligations as set out in the proposal.
