The SSDS Network

SSDS has administrative and financial headquarters in Boston and individual professional or project offices in other parts of the US and several other countries. All staff members are highly qualified and specialized primarily in the health sector, with a range of experience along the research-to-practice continuum, including:

Our staff bring a wide range of skills and analytical tools to their work - clinical knowledge, training in epidemiology and health economics, cost-effectiveness and policy analysis, program evaluation, research on current program evidence, skills in institutional development, health sector assessments, curriculum development, teaching and writing, experience in the maintenance and use of large data bases, and innovative research methods.

SSDS has a very flat hierarchy. Seasoned professionals self-supervise and collaborate as appropriate. SSDS strives for lean, streamlined operations at headquarters and exceptional quality in our consulting and research services. As a small business, SSDS is flexible, innovative, and efficient in providing high quality professional services, characteristics for which the best small companies are known.

The Institute for SSDS, a non-profit, provides similar services in the health, education and arts sectors.
