Case Studies

Industry Profile

Recently a major investment banking firm in Australia engaged Moss Adams to produce an in-depth report about the state of the music publishing industry. Research Services played a central role in the engagement by finding answers to crucial questions about how the industry is performing and how it operates. Our researchers tracked down the best industry information—market research, key industry newsletters and magazines, trade organizations and investor presentations—documented major trends, examined the competitive landscape and traced details about recent music asset transactions. Research Services then presented the findings to a team of intellectual property consultants who further analyzed the data and produced a custom report for the client.

Health Care Systems

A large community health center requested in-depth research on success and ROI factors for implementing an electronic medical records system. Research included reading and analysis of white papers, market research reports, and published articles. The research was used by the health center to implement the new system quickly and successfully.

Winery Operations

Research Services conducted feasibility research on a winery's plans to build and operate a dedicated event facility. The research included demographic statistics, regional economics, competitor profiles and the outlook for the national and local event industry. This research allowed the client to make an informed business decision.

Software Identification

Going beyond traditional secondary sources, Research Services conducted primary research on FAS123R compliant software vendors. A white paper was written that detailed top stock option administration software vendors and the competitive environment. This intelligence is used frequently when consulting with clients.
