We undertake needs and market assessments, particularly for housing, health, care and support services, across a wide range of service user groups, both stand alone, and as an element of new strategies and commissioning plans.
We work with local authorities to use GIS mapping to relate current services to demographics and need.
We also undertake market assessments for private sector clients who are looking for market intelligence to inform business planning.
PFA tools: we have developed both quantitative and qualitative needs assessment tools, including a housing needs survey for older people and a snapshot survey for socially excluded groups.
