Services, initiatives, and policies are more impactful when grounded in evidence and sound principles. This means that data gathering and analysis are crucial. At IPC, we work with national bodies, central government agencies, independent or voluntary sector organisations, the NHS, and local authorities to provide independent research and evaluation.
Our skilled research team specialises in innovative, mixed method research and evaluation with a strong ‘realist’ (Pawson & Tilley, 1997) emphasis. Our highly collaborative approach incorporates the voice of service providers and service users / patients throughout a project’s journey. We are frequently commissioned to become an evaluation partner to public health and social care organisations over an extended timeframe to enable a learning and development cycle to emerge.
Our innovative and ethical methods for capturing the voices of care recipients are widely recognised, and we are committed to promoting diversity, equality, and inclusion in all our work. We recognise that different communities have different needs and experiences, and we strive to ensure that our research and evaluation services are culturally attuned.

Our independent assessments offer impartial insights into the performance of policies, programmes, and services, ensuring that public care is transparent and trustworthy.
Our organisation strongly advocates for a culture of ongoing learning and development, to ensure that public care services can adapt to changing needs and overcome challenges.
Engaging stakeholders and communities in decision-making is a key aspect of our approach. This helps ensure that our initiatives are both responsive and effective.
Our goal is to provide your organisation with the data and analysis it needs to make informed decisions, which ultimately leads to increased public care efficiency and impact.
Consistently monitoring and thoroughly evaluating performance allows us to identify areas that require improvement. This leads to better outcomes, improved safety, and a higher quality of services.
