“Magnolia Consulting has been an excellent organization to work with in completing a number of projects in our portfolio of field-based research and development projects. Magnolia has added value and rigor to our study designs, data collection and analysis plans, and reports in each and every project. The staff are a pleasure to work with and I can always count on them to deliver quality, on time, and within budget. We couldn’t ask for a better research and development partner.”
