Where advisory support is most useful

When a programme is important but its strategy remains diffuse; when institutional research performance is uneven; when a strong technical idea needs a fundable architecture; or when evidence exists but is not influencing the decisions it was meant to serve.

Assignments are scoped around a clear question, defined stakeholders and a useful decision—not open-ended consultancy.
