In God we trust. All others must bring data.
Data analysis is more than just moving numbers around a spreadsheet. It’s how we extract the meaning and insights that allow us to make better, more informed decisions. But those insights will only be true and useful to the extent that data are properly managed, analyzed, and interpreted.
That’s why we live for data analyses. Whether you’re looking for the rigor of academia or the pragmatism of industry, we can help with all your data analysis needs. We help with all steps of the process as well — from data preparation to data interpretation. There’s no statistical analysis that’s too complex for us.
Cleaning and organizing data in preparation for analysis is an often overlooked but important part of the research process. No matter the state of your data file, we are adept at manipulating data quickly and precisely in various languages such as R, SPSS, Matlab, SQL, and Stata. Furthermore, our breadth of expertise with the research process allows us to craft survey questions in advance that are optimally conducive to the preparation process.
Our analysts have a mastery of almost every kind of analysis within the general academic realm. We can run the full spectrum of different analyses, but some of our most typical requests include:
In addition, for more involved projects we help clients perform a process of triangulation – using different methods to reveal a phenomenon through multiple lenses, in essence, to combat biases associated with common method variance. Our job isn’t done until you feel completely comfortable with your results and your ability to interpret them. Unlike other consulting firms, we work to empower our clients to master their analyses – and we never “cut off” our clients after an analysis is complete. We’ll work with you every step of the way and are always responsive to your questions and concerns.
Once an analysis is complete we work with clients to fully understand their results. Our task isn’t complete until you feel 100% confident and comfortable interpreting your analysis. Even after an project is complete, we never “cut off” clients from returning to get help interpreting or understanding their analysis. Lastly, we help clients understand he big picture of their own research: What story does the data tell, and how does that story fit into the bigger picture?
We have never turned down a project due to complexity. As researchers and practitioners in our respective fields, we are always growing our skills and sharing insights. We’re adept at working with complex statistical procedures, and have firsthand experience conducting analyses and creating optimizations for big data projects.
