THE BUYER PROBLEM

Resolve the decision behind the request.

A final spreadsheet without code, settings or source version cannot explain how yesterday’s result was generated.

HOW THE WORK MOVES

Scope first. Traceable decisions throughout.

  1. Record source and clean versions
  2. Freeze objectives and analysis settings
  3. Retain outputs and diagnostics
  4. Review lineage before release

Professional delivery uses the existing canonical project and case workflow. Independent QA and release approval are distinct decisions; unresolved findings remain visible.

What the agreed scope can deliver

01 · DELIVERABLE

Dataset and analysis version manifest

Confirm the exact format, accountable reviewer and acceptance criteria in the written scope before work begins.

02 · DELIVERABLE

Code/settings and run documentation within scope

Confirm the exact format, accountable reviewer and acceptance criteria in the written scope before work begins.

03 · DELIVERABLE

Evidence pack connecting outputs to QA decisions

Confirm the exact format, accountable reviewer and acceptance criteria in the written scope before work begins.

Methods, assumptions and boundaries

Re-running code does not prove the model is valid. External proprietary dependencies and unavailable source data must be documented.

Source values are preserved; changes require documented reasons. Analysis needs a defined outcome, population, design and eligible records. Review may withhold an unsupported test or conclusion.

Read the RMA methodology →

Start with context. Transfer data privately.

The public fit check asks for objectives, stage and constraints. Do not paste participant names, health records, passwords or connector tokens. Access, permitted data, retention and export/deletion arrangements are confirmed before private transfer.

Is this a fit?

For researchers and institutions needing traceable results who can explain the intended decision, provide authorised evidence and accept transparent limitations.

Outside scope: fabricated data, guaranteed significance, thesis ghostwriting, clinical decision-making or claims of regulatory certification.

Before you start

What does the first enquiry commit me to?

Nothing is charged through the fit-check form. RMA reviews scope and confirms deliverables, exclusions, timing and price in writing.

Will I need a personal or organisation workspace?

Choose personal research or an organisation project during intake. The same RMA account can participate in both. A professional service is linked to the canonical case; it does not create a separate portal.

Can you guarantee an outcome or approval?

No. Findings depend on the source data and design. QA checks the agreed evidence and cannot guarantee significance, graduation, grant funding or publication.

Prepare a stronger brief.
