Exclusive Projects
wind:research conducts, next to single client studies , also exclusive projects by direct order of a client.
In contrast to multi client studies , the topic, methods, focus, extent, and time frame are individually tailored. In cooperation with the client, content priorities for example on technologies, markets, scenarios, market analyses or even strategy advices are defined.
The big advantage of single client studies is the fact that they are written to meet the individual requirements of the client, including the planning, preparation, interviews, results and conclusions. Not only are particular target groups interviewed, but also special questions on requested aspects integrated.
A detailed briefing as well as the individual concept of each study serve as the basis for the final compilation of the study. Objectives and contents are coordinated with the client in the first of several workshops. It is followed by an intermediate presentation which offers the possibility to adjust or add aspects concerning the analysis of results.
At the end of the project, the final results are presented to the client. If required, we make use of our networking potential. Our guidelines concerning traceability, validity, client orientation and proved and up-to-date statements are also guaranteed in this context.
Examples for single client studies and exclusive projects
Example for an offshore topic
Client:
- Logistics company
Extent/content:
- Market analysis of existing and future vessel capacities for the erection of offshore wind farms in Europe
- Identification of existing wind farms and ranking of farms that are planned or under construction in Europe
- Estimating the future demand of turbine installation vessels (TIV) for the planned expansion of offshore wind energy in Europe (specific demand analysis for this market segment)
- Development of a recommendation for further proceeding
Results of the project:
- Lists and profiles of special vessels for the offshore wind energy (TIV)
- Illustration of the expected development of offshore wind farms in this specific market segment and of the demand of TIV in Europe
- Providing a basis for the company's decisions concerning further proceeding
Benefit for the client:
- Through the information received by the study: decision for the construction of a TIV
- Overview of the market and possible sub markets
- Detailed information about TIV (competitors)
Project data:
- Duration of the project: two months
- Professional field of competence: offshore wind energy, concepts for constructors, ship logistics
- Wind energy, logistics
Example for an onshore topic
Client:
- Energy utility
Extent/content:
