Research

We conduct small-, medium-, and large-scale research activities such as health facilities assessments and impact evaluations of various interventions. We excel in managing self-administered and onsite surveys per the client’s requirements. Our use of advanced data collection technologies such as REDCap, KoBo Toolbox, CSPro, etc., ensures the quality and accuracy of our research. In addition, we use license-based statistical tools such as SPARK, R, SPSS, and STATA to handle large databases. The qualitative data is dealt with through ATLAS.Ti software. 

Our research division is one of our key strengths because it helps us use evidence-based approaches in all our service areas. This commitment to evidence-based research not only ensures the reliability of our findings but also differentiates us from a general healthcare advisory firm.
