What we do
HRC specialize in research and consultancy. HRC have a deep understanding of the problem solution and policy environment which it takes place. This means HRC can quickly get to the heart of the issues faced by our clients, and can draw on our insights and network to find solutions. HRC have a genuine desire to make a difference to the way research is managed, disseminated and commercialized, and set ourselves the highest standards of integrity and professionalism.
Knowledge and Networking
Research takes place in a complex ecosystem where change comes slowly and relies on consensus. HRC won’t try to shortcut this process, or pretend these challenges don’t exist. But HRC will usually have a good idea of what to look at, who to speak to, and what approach is needed to deliver meaningful results. HRC is respected by many key stakeholders in academic research and scholarly communications. This allows us to make connections and source information that others cannot. HRC’s work spans organizational and national boundaries and we frequently provide independent expertise at the nexus between government, academia and the private sector.
Evidence based insights
Working closely with our clients, HRC ensures a full understanding of the existing context and evidence base relevant to any project, then builds on this through quantitative and qualitative methods to deliver fresh insights. HRC has run a large number of sophisticated field and online surveys, and HRC can deliver, workshops, interviews, and focus groups both face-to-face and through videoconferencing technology. Our blend of academic rigor and commercial acumen allows us to deliver results that withstand critical scrutiny. By bringing to bear specialist expertise in data analytics and financial modeling, HRC is committed to giving clear answers and practical solutions in an accessible and informative way.
Professional Delivery
HRC makes sure project outcomes are defined clearly from the outset, and we do everything in our power to deliver polished results, on time and on budget. We deliver high-quality outputs in written, graphical, and video formats. If HRC isn’t the right people for a project, we’ll tell you this honestly – and if we’re fully committed, HRC will decline opportunities rather than sell existing clients short. Finding common ground between academia, government and the private and third sectors lies at the heart of what we do. We help organizations implement the right systems and processes to enable excellent research, and work globally to shape improvements to scholarly communications, ensuring research outputs can be shared more effectively. We work to pinpoint the impact arising from research, helping our clients develop and maintain world-leading and internationally excellent reputations across academic disciplines. We help organizations identify and realize knowledge exchange and commercialization opportunities, and advise businesses and not-for-profits on how to harness academic and non-academic expertise.
