Welcome to the Data Procurement Network
Welcome to the Data Procurement Network
Your future gateway to informed data procurement decisions.
We are soon to launch a comprehensive insight platform designed to help organizations better understand and evaluate the strengths of research and data providers across the market. In today's data-driven business environment, selecting the right research and data provider is a critical decision that can significantly impact your operational efficiency, strategic planning, and competitive advantage.
The Problem We're Solving
Finding the right research and data provider is unnecessarily challenging. Marketing materials often present an idealized version of capabilities, while Google searches yield overwhelming results that fail to clarify which providers truly excel in specific domains. Without insider knowledge or extensive market experience, it's difficult to determine which provider offers genuine strength in your particular area of interest. This information asymmetry leads to suboptimal procurement decisions, wasted resources, and missed opportunities.
Our Approach
It's important to note that our mission is not to pick "winners" or rank providers in a competitive hierarchy. Instead, we aim to objectively highlight the known strengths of each research and data provider. We recognize that different organizations have different specialties, and the "best" provider for one use case may not be ideal for another. Our goal is to create transparency about these distinctions to help you find the most appropriate match for your specific needs.
Our platform brings transparency to the research and data provider landscape through a unique dual-perspective approach.
We’re actively partnering with select groups of buyers through various professional bodies to generate valuable insights from two essential viewpoints:
The Data Procurement Network is being developed by leveraging our deep networks in market intelligence, market data, information management, analyst relations, and librarianship. These established connections allow us to gather nuanced insights and expertise that go far beyond surface-level evaluations.
This balanced perspective will help you develop better shortlists of potential providers when searching for specific insights or data solutions. By understanding the genuine strengths of each provider upfront, you can focus your evaluation efforts on organizations that truly excel in your areas of interest, saving time and resources in the procurement process. Whether you're seeking financial data, market intelligence, consumer insights, or specialized industry information, our platform will guide you toward the most relevant research and data partners for your specific requirements.
We're currently in the development phase and look forward to launching the full platform soon.
