40 years of DESANResearch technology and delivery since 1986

For research agencies

Your research. Our production capacity.

DESAN supports research agencies with software, programming, data collection and processing—either visibly as a specialist or entirely under the agency’s own name and visual identity.

Partner promise

Your client remains your client.

DESAN takes operational responsibility for the agreed components, while the research agency retains the commercial relationship and direction towards the end client.

Operational project management

DESAN manages the commissioned production components and reports to the agency’s project team.

No commercial approach

DESAN does not use the collaboration to establish a direct relationship with the end client.

Production services

Outsource exactly what you need.

From a single specialist component to a complete production environment, the service can be assembled per project and scaled up later.

Collaboration models

From a single component to complete white-label production.

01

Single production component

The research agency retains project control. DESAN delivers a clearly defined component under fixed agreements.

For example programming, call centre or scanning
03

Complete white-label production

DESAN organises the agreed delivery. The research agency remains the point of contact for the end client.

Under your name, branding and communication channels

White-label

To the respondent, your agency is delivering the research.

DESAN staff present themselves on behalf of the research agency. Respondents see and hear the agreed name, visual identity and contact details.

  • Calling and emailing on behalf of the research agency
  • Questionnaires, landing pages and dashboards in your own branding
  • Use of your own domain names and sender details
  • No visible transition to another supplier
  • Clear agreements on contact with the end client
