Complimentary to the array of research tools and resources your organisation uses, our custom studies are initiated by specific client requests. Our analysis approach is to speak directly to the target competitors to collect custom information regarding their public position on their products and services, the hard-to-find within the general public domain competitor information.

Our research is conducted in real-time and directed by specific client needs. Using pre-sales inquiries, our expert analyst teams collect information directly from client competitors to ensure that only the most accurate and actionable information is included in our reports. Speaking to the target competitors offers several advantages over simply interviewing customers, industry analysts and industry executives since the intelligence that our clients need is not attainable through interviews or secondary online research resources.
