What can the service do for me?

The AHURI Research Synthesis Service can respond quickly to requests for synthesis of the existing evidence on your topic and provide outputs tailored to your purpose.

The service ensures confi dence that your decisions are based on the best available evidence. It can make research more accessible and provide you with resources for innovation and problem-solving.

The AHURI Research Synthesis Service can:

  1. Identify and evaluate the evidence relevant to your decision-making – assessment of research availability, currency, credibility, gaps and limitations.
  2. Deliver a highly targeted synthesis of the evidence within agreed timeframes. Written synthesis can be presented, for example, in tabular or narrative styles to suit your requirements.
  3. Communicate the research findings and engage you in understanding and ownership of the evidence, using presentation or workshop formats.
  4. Generate decision-making implications from the evidence using interactive processes with you and your team, or as part of the synthesis report.
  5. Update the synthesis with new research and data as it becomes available, or on a regular basis.
Remember the service is oriented toward meeting your needs in scope, timeframe and purpose and all elements are negotiable.

How long will it take?

Typically, projects can be delivered within one to six weeks.
