Platform Projects

What you need.

You need a service provider to give ongoing strategic advice or support in operational implementation and communication. Rather than commissioning each of these services individually you would prefer to deal with a single provider – reliable and lean in bureaucracy.

What we offer.

Prognos can assume the tasks of platform and integrated projects in various political areas. In this context, we advise and support numerous clients. Our services extend from strategic advice, ad-hoc consulting, programme monitoring, and evaluation, up to network and event management, and public relations. For this purpose, the platform projects have multi-professional teams at their disposal – from data analysts to moderators, as well as technical experts.

Platform Projects: A selection of our services

Strategy consulting

We support your initiatives with strategic impulses. Making use of the breadth of our expertise as well as our databases and models.

With internal argument papers, public policy papers, and thematic dossiers, we create a basis for well-founded decisions. Using market studies and analysis of future trends we cover development, challenges, and innovation potential. Our analyses and evaluations touch on up-to-date studies and research results, as well as the results of Prognos’ intelligence tools, panels, and interviews.

Networking

We initiate platforms, create new network formats, offer thematic orientation, and bring stakeholders on board. We provide a platform for exchange between actors, integrate external expertise, and coordinate panels.

Monitoring and evaluation

We continuously monitor the development of your industry, your network, and the implementation of your funding programme. We conduct ex-ante evaluations and expectant outputs and results and review the impact of funding programmes with half-time or ex-post evaluations.

Ad-hoc consulting

We deliver the expertise you require at short notice. Our services range from ad-hoc consulting, the preparation of statistical data, and the classification of scientific research to the creation of fact sheets.

Public relations

We take care of the visibility of your programme and results. Through websites, online magazines, and social media, we make the relevant information available for your target groups and stakeholders. The collaboration between your press office and our public relations work will ensure the publication of relevant content in the appropriate media – in print and online. We create reports, oversee editorial work for your communication products, and coordinate with agencies.

Events

Workshops, symposiums, or congresses, in person or online. We coordinate the event concept with you, and take care of the speakers and participants, ensuring that everything runs smoothly, and that the documentation is specifically tailored to your target group. Our added value for you – not only are our eyes firmly on the organisation but we also understand the content. In addition, you benefit from our experienced presenters and experts.
