This past fiscal year, as part of a pilot project, government-wide subscriptions to six syndicated public opinion research studies were purchased.
Syndicated studies are “off the shelf” research reports that provide subscribing organizations with insights on a range of societal and government-specific topics. A major benefit of syndicated studies is their cost-efficiency. They are often more affordable than custom research studies because costs, and research results, are shared among subscribers.
The pilot project allowed federal departments to access the collected information through a single subscription, while ensuring respect for intellectual property rights.
The syndicated studies purchased are listed below.
