Research

Practically relevant research remains the cornerstone of what we do. It is the basis of maintaining the knowledge that underpins our technical advisory services. Members fund much of the research done here via their membership fee, and they have unique, privileged access to the results - e.g. via Research Summaries on the members-only section of the website, and through full Research Reports which can also be downloaded via the website.

Members also decide what research we do - through our Member Interest Group system - and they also have input into the steering of membership fee - funded projects via the same route. Presentations and updates on current work are regularly given at these meetings.
