Our Data Analysis Services
We offer end-to-end support for both quantitative and qualitative research, and mixed-methods projects. Services are tailored to the scope of your study and the level of involvement you need.
- Quantitative analysis: Descriptive statistics, inferential tests, regression modelling (linear, logistic), ANOVA, multilevel models, structural equation modelling, power analysis, and survey weighting.
- Qualitative analysis: Thematic analysis, content analysis, grounded theory coding, NVivo setup and coding, inter-coder agreement, and narrative synthesis.
- Mixed-methods integration: Convergent and sequential designs, data triangulation, and integrated reporting of quantitative and qualitative findings.
- Data preparation: Cleaning, missing data handling, reliability testing (Cronbach’s alpha), and codebook creation for reproducible research.
- Visualisation and reporting: Publication-quality tables, charts, and infographics for thesis chapters, posters, and mobile-friendly presentations.
Our Process — Simple, Transparent, and Collaborative
We follow a clear process that keeps you in control and ensures your results are accurate and reproducible.
- Initial consultation: We assess your research questions, dataset, and timeline to define deliverables and methods.
- Proposal and scope: You receive a written plan describing the analysis steps, software to be used, expected outputs, and delivery schedule.
- Data handling and analysis: We work on your dataset with careful documentation and regular check-ins to confirm assumptions and preliminary results.
- Interpretation & reporting: We prepare a results chapter or section, explain findings in academic yet accessible terms, and suggest implications for your discussion.
- Revisions & defence prep: We offer revisions and help you prepare to defend your findings, including slide decks and answers to likely examiner questions.
