SHG has one of the largest medical market research communities so we can routinely meet all the needs of our clients from our internal asset. SHG is often approached by other firms to help them complete quota as a top up service. When required, and with full transparency with our clients, we will supplement with samples from other providers. When this is the case, our partner providers are held to the same vigorous standards we hold ourselves to in regards to data quality. In these circumstances, SHG would utilize our proprietary “The Hub” technology, industry standard Relevant ID and industry standard non technological practices to ensure deduplication.
All of our partners are verified to ensure they abide by the Codes of Conduct/Guidelines of CASRO, the MRA, ESOMAR, BHBIA, PMRG and PBIRG in all market research activities/practices. All partners must pass our four-step vetting process and are held to the same high quality standards to which our clients expect and we ourselves guarantee, in terms of data quality and customer service.
