A 12-Month Senior-Led Engagement

For organisations making continuous, high-stakes decisions, project-by-project research can create friction.

Skopos works with selected clients on a retained basis — embedding senior strategic insight into the business over a structured 12-month engagement.

This is not a packaged product.
It is an ongoing working relationship.

Why Retained?

Most research is commissioned when a question arises.

But leadership teams don’t face isolated questions.
They face ongoing decisions.

A retained model provides:

- Continuity of thinking
- Accumulated organisational knowledge
- Faster response when priorities shift
- Senior judgement embedded over time
- Reduced procurement friction

It allows insight to compound — not reset.

How it works

Each retained engagement is structured over 12 months and tailored to the organisation’s decision landscape.

The model combines:

- Monthly senior strategic sessions
- Rapid research capability when required
- Structured quarterly deep dives
- Ongoing insight planning
- Executive-ready, defensible outputs

Scope flexes in response to business priorities.
The structure ensures continuity and accountability.
