Scoped research for education organizations: what a market looks like, how a role or package compares, and what a project needs before a pilot. The question and available evidence determine the assignment.
Compensation structure review
Are packages comparable? An assessment of pay, benefits, workload and data limitations on a consistent basis.
Project feasibility review
What needs to be true for a project to work? A review of assumptions, delivery dependencies and pilot options.
