Research Consultancy
Powered by RKD's industry-leading knowledge, Research as a Service (RaaS) offers a flexible and cost-effective way for organisations of all sizes to access the research capabilities they need to innovate faster and develop more sustainably.
Our dedicated researchers work collaboratively as an extension of your team to apply research to real industry challenges. We handle everything from designing research methodologies and mining critical data to providing actionable recommendations that improve decision-making and drive scalable strategic development. We take accountability for the greater good, supporting cross-sectoral knowledge sharing while safeguarding our clients' proprietary information and ensuring the security of confidential material through robust data handling.
RKD's RaaS capability has supported public bodies in shaping national policy and informing official guidance on climate targets. Our private sector clients have used the service to build the evidence base for special-purpose project research and to standardise sustainability terminology. As well as basic and applied research undertaken for clients, we regularly publish insights and findings from our original research.
Research Collaboration
We are also available to work in collaboration with partners on government, EU, or other funded projects. Our team has extensive experience and expertise in multiple facets of sustainability and the built environment.
