Many organizations need science or research based data but lack the staff and resources to complete the work themselves.  Black Cat is experienced in creative research design and utilizing existing assets in the most effective manner. We can assist you from start to finish on a project; beginning with grant writing and project design, through project initiation and field work to final reporting and publication of results.

Literature Review and Data Analysis

Black Cat can provide your organization with a thoroughly researched scientific literature review on any subject. Gathering existing facts and previous peer-reviewed works is vital to making competititve proposals and strong publications. 

Do you have existing data sitting around that needs analyzing? We can run a variety of statistical and spatial anlayses on data to look for patterns and trends.  All results will be delivered in a detailed final report that can be immediately utilized by your group.

Grant Writing

Black Cat can help with your funding needs. In additon to project design, we can assist with writing grant proposals and making connections with potential partners and stakeholders. Competitive grants proposals need to explain the urgent need for a project through a well researched justification, give a logical, practical solution and provide a detailed budget with expected outcomes. Our experience in the conservation field has exposed Black Cat to the many needs of the conservation community.  We can help match up the right funding sources with a great proposal and exciting project.

Project Design

Tell us your needs and questions about a system and we can work with your organization's requirements to create the most effective project design possible. Coming from a non-profit background, we understand funding can be tight and we'll work with your group to determine where spending needs to be allocated and find creative solutions to make a project economical.

Black Cat will be there for you throughout the project lifecycle- managing initial design, field work, final reporting and publication.  We excel at creating high quality scientific articles with professional graphics, charts and maps.
