BUSINESS RESEARCH SERVICES

At D-R INFO we undertake projects that are focused on specific goals, such as market research (secondary and primary), competitive intelligence, industry analysis, and/or target company dossiers, allowing companies to focus on their core, revenue-producing functions and outsource this kind of time-intensive research.

Resources that we use for our client engagements include subscriptions to proprietary databases, such as Dialog, Factiva, 10K Wizard, Skyminder, and Hoover’s, as well as the Internet. Some projects may also require in-person or telephone interviewing, tradeshow attendance, and/or library or archival research.

Our work generally involves one independent information professional working directly with the client. On occasion, however, when the research involves "new territory," teaming up with other professionals provides the best results. We participate in a network of hundreds of other information professionals here and abroad through membership in the Association of Independent Information Professionals. Through the AIIP network, members work together so that projects in unfamiliar areas can be contracted out.

The research results are summarized and analyzed in a comprehensive report.
