Our Research Approach

We combine multiple research methodologies to deliver reliable and actionable semiconductor and electronics intelligence:

Primary Research

Insights gathered through interviews and interactions with component makers, brand owners, distributors, system integrators, installers, business users, industry experts and other relevant stakeholders.

Secondary Research

Analysis of EXIM and trade data including bills of lading, company reports, technology and industry databases, standards and certification bodies, government publications and other credible information sources.

Analyst Insights

Our analysts interpret market data, technology roadmaps, supply chain shifts, policy changes, competitive movements and emerging trends to provide meaningful insights beyond raw market numbers.

How the three come together

1
Gather

Primary and secondary inputs are collected in parallel, so interviews can test what the data suggests and the other way round.

2
Triangulate

Where sources disagree, analysts work out why. A figure that can't be reconciled across sources doesn't go into a report.

3
Forecast

Projections run on 6WForecastIQ, which weighs lead indicators alongside time-series and econometric models.

Customize a report around your decision

A published report answers the questions most buyers share. Your board meeting usually has one or two that only apply to you. The analysts who built the original model do the extra work, so added countries, segments or companies line up with the numbers you already have. Typical requests include adding an installer survey to a product market report, or splitting the forecast by application and price band.

Extend coverage to every market on your shortlist.

New segment splits

Break data down by product, application, price band or customer group.

Named company profiles

Research and cross-check. Desk research, interviews and surveys run in parallel and are checked against each other.
4
Delivery and walkthrough. Report and data files, then a findings session with the analysts.
