Strategies, Insights, & Results.

Six Decades of Expert Consulting

Take a look around. No matter what industry you are in, odds are we’ve worked in it. After all, we’ve been doing this since 1964. With over 15,000 research studies and consulting projects under our belts, we are unmatched in our perspective and insights. Below are our core practice areas:

Nonprofits
Helping nonprofit organizations maximize their assets, connect with their stakeholders, build capacity, and enhance their reach and impact.

Economic Development
Supporting small towns, cities, counties, and even entire states maximize the economic impact of both their tourism and workforce assets.  

Transportation
Engaging transportation and transit agencies, residents, businesses, commuters, and transit riders throughout the country.

Higher Education
Working with entire campus communities to optimize their internal and external communications, implement diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, and partner with alumni associations to create effective engagement strategies.

Healthcare
Developing best practices, identifying opportunities for advancing health equity, eliminating barriers to care, and enhancing resources to address the social determinants of health.

Corporate and Workplace Culture
Leveraging industry trends and maximizing internal company culture — all backed by qualitative and quantitative data from the people fueling your company or cause.

Our experience and inquiry has led us to some fascinating places and SIR proudly considers itself a collective of curious people. We like researching and solving problems — and we’re good at it. We talk to people. We get the data and feedback that matter. We help you understand what these insights mean for your team and develop a plan, supporting you in the next big step toward transformational change.

And we’re always eager to learn more to get the job done for our clients — tailoring a project to meet your needs.

SIR’s work for clients is informed by custom research and our analyses of existing secondary research, but the biggest advantage of engaging SIR is through our think tank, SIR’s Institute for Tomorrow®.

We launched the think tank because the pace of change is increasing exponentially — What changes will matter? How will consumers or customers respond to what’s next? What is the best path forward?

It’s our job to find out.
