  • Document assumptions, methods, and data sources so our analyses are transparent and reproducible
  • Partner with lead authors and marketers to scope analyses that answer specific questions for each report

  • Respond to follow-up questions like 'Is this real?', 'What happens if we slice it this way?', or 'How does this compare to last quarter?'
