Research Project Management:
Research Project Management:
Research project management services for socially conscious businesses and charities, facilitating robust strategic planning and holistic service delivery.
A single research project provides at least 12 months of development value in as little as 2 weeks.
This full-scale service takes the entire research project off your hands, reclaiming up to 150 hours per month.
The organisation will achieve its R&D goals faster, with fewer bottlenecks, and more time to dedicate to service users.
The research project management services listed here are available for individual projects or on retainer, according to clients' needs.

Regular Project Progress Updates:
Clients are entitled to regular progress updates, regardless of project size or duration.
Typically, a one-month research project includes up to two, 30-minute progress meetings via Google Meets.
However, the frequency and delivery of project progress updates will be discussed and tailored to clients' needs during their initial consultation.

I am particularly interested in historical research projects, especially those relating to genealogy, census records, or the medieval period.
