Research & Evaluation · Australia
Services & Pricing
Clear, practical research support - scoped to your project, your timeline and your budget.
Every project is different, so every project is scoped individually. The prices below are guide prices only - they show the typical starting point for a minimum scope of work. Once we understand what you need, we will give you a fixed quote before any work begins.
Prices are current as at July, 2026 and may change.
Evidence you can act on
Independent research and evaluation for the health, community and government sectors. Below is a plain-language guide to what we do and what each service typically costs.
Every project is scoped to your question.
Strategic planning
Facilitated planning support grounded in evidence - helping your team set direction, define priorities and agree on how you will measure progress - from $7,000.
Program evaluation
An independent evaluation of your program or service - what is working, what could improve, and the evidence to show funders and boards - from $7,000.
Interviews (6-8 participants)
In-depth one-on-one interviews with staff, clients or stakeholders, including interview design, recruitment support, analysis and reporting - from $7,000.
Focus group (single, online)
A facilitated online focus group up to 8 participants, including discussion guide design, facilitation, analysis and a clear summary of findings - from $9,000.
Systematic review
The most rigorous form of evidence review, following established protocols. Suited to publication, policy submissions or major program decisions - from $18,000.
Delphi panel
A structured process for building expert consensus on a complex question. Scoped and priced individually - Contact us.
Randomised controlled trial (RCT)
The gold standard for testing whether a program or intervention works. Scoped and priced individually - Contact us.
Evidence brief / summary of evidence
A short, plain-language summary of what the research says on a specific question. Useful when you need a fast, reliable answer to inform a decision, a proposal or a board paper - from $2,500.
Rapid review
A structured review of the evidence on a defined topic, completed in weeks rather than months. More rigorous than an evidence brief, faster than a full literature review - from $3,500.
Ethics application (low risk)
Preparation of a low-risk human research ethics application, including supporting documents such as information sheets and consent forms. We handle the paperwork so your project can start sooner - from $3,500.
Data interrogation / secondary analysis
Analysis of data you already hold - service data, survey results, administrative records - to answer new questions or find patterns you have not had time to explore - from $3,500.
Online survey
Design, build and analysis of an online survey, from question development through to a plain-language report of the results - from $3,500.
Literature review
A comprehensive review of the published research on your topic, written up clearly with practical implications for your work - from $6,500.
Working with the Community Sector
We understand that not-for-profit and community organisations work within tight budgets. Contact us to talk about community-sector budgets - we will always try to find a scope that works.
