Expertise

Our interdisciplinary approach to problem solving integrates research, design and sharing of knowledge, crossing traditional boundaries to explore innovative ideas for problem solving. Research informs design; design produces results; results are shared and in turn, inform future endeavors.

RAD Consultants uses an evidence-based approach to generate design criteria. Based on the goals for the project, a focused literature review is conducted to identify credible research and other vetted sources of information and experience to translate into clear and concise guidelines. This process manages expectations in anticipation of (and sets the tone for) the conceptual and schematic design phases. Furthermore, the guidelines and supporting literature review informs the research agenda to measure outcomes projected by the project team.
