L&E coordinates vetted partners for moderation, transcription, translation, technology platforms, and specialized research services, managed through a single point of contact.
Qualitative research often requires capabilities beyond recruitment and facilities: simultaneous translation for multilingual studies, experienced moderators for sensitive topics, specialized technology platforms for specific methodologies, or transcription services that meet your timeline and formatting requirements. Rather than asking clients to source and manage those vendors independently, L&E maintains a network of verified partners whose work we coordinate directly.
Every partner in L&E’s network has been evaluated for quality, reliability, and alignment with L&E’s service standards, including our ISO 20252 and ISO 27001 certifications. When a project requires partner services, your L&E project manager manages the coordination, so you work with one team, not five.
L&E connects clients with experienced qualitative moderators and research facilitators for focus groups, in-depth interviews, and specialized sessions. Whether a project requires a moderator with specific industry expertise, language fluency, or methodological training, we match the right professional to the study.
For studies that require specific research technology (online qualitative platforms, survey tools, diary study applications, or specialized data collection systems), L&E works with trusted technology partners to integrate the right tools into your project. Our team handles setup, participant onboarding, and technical support so the technology works without adding complexity for your team.
L&E coordinates transcription and translation through vetted providers who understand research content. Services include verbatim and summary transcription, simultaneous and consecutive interpretation for live sessions, and document translation for multilingual studies. Turnaround times and formatting are managed to your specifications.
Beyond the core categories, L&E’s partner network extends to additional research support: professional videography, graphic recording, stimulus design and production, and facility coordination in markets where L&E does not operate a physical location. When a study requires research space outside of L&E’s facility markets, we identify, vet, and manage partner facilities to the same standards clients expect from our own locations.
The value of the partner network isn’t just access to additional services; it’s that L&E manages the coordination. Your project manager handles vendor communication, scheduling, deliverable tracking, and quality review for partner services the same way they manage the recruitment and facility logistics. One point of contact, one relationship, one team accountable for the outcome.
