Local Government
Business to Business

BMG Research has enjoyed working in partnership with local government for some 20 years and in 2008 was commissioned to undertake place surveys over 50 local authorities.

Local authorities are committed to recognising and celebrating local diversity, and a pre-requisite to achieving this is their ability to engage in meaningful and open dialogue with local communities. One of our strengths in the social and economic research arena has been our ability to effectively and efficiently engage with diverse groups.


BMG is fully conversant with local government policy developments and the challenges local authorities will face under the Comprehensive Area Assessment and local area agreements. BMG will continue to fully support our clients in the effective development and delivery of strategies which enhance the quality of life for the communities they serve
