Who We Help
We work with teams that have the research vision — but not the engineering capacity to deliver the digital outputs they need.
Research Groups and University Teams
Labs and university teams needing data work, research tools, dashboards, or project sites — delivered alongside active research.
Philanthropic Organisations
Foundations and nonprofits delivering funded programmes — and needing the digital infrastructure to show donors what their money built.
Health & Life Sciences
Health and clinical teams needing research dashboards, data pipelines, and ML deployment with proper oversight.
Governments & Public Agencies
Public bodies that need to show citizens and oversight committees what programme money produced — clearly, in documented digital form.
When Teams Bring Us In
These are the situations we see over and over. If any sound familiar, we can help.
Your PhD students are best at research, not engineering — they don't have time to build the platform
You tried working with an agency but they didn't understand your grant context or deliverable format
Your university RSE team is overbooked and can't take on your project
You have a REDCap, Shiny, or Streamlit prototype that needs to become a production research tool
The reporting deadline is approaching, project closeout is around the corner, and the digital deliverables aren't ready
What We Deliver
Grant consultancies promise — they don't build. Generic agencies build the wrong thing. We bridge the gap: research data management, grant closeout, research tool development, MLOps for research teams. Documented, on deadline.
Data-to-Report Sprint
From raw or fragmented data to research data analysis, visualisation, and reporting-ready outputs — built around what funders and evaluators expect.
Reports your funder accepts on first review — no rework, no late-night reformatting.
Who it's for
Research teams and grant-funded projects that need a fast, structured research data reporting workflow without building internal analytics capacity.
Deliverables
- Data cleaning and structuring — so your team can focus on interpretation, not wrangling
- Analysis tables, charts, and visual outputs — ready for reports and presentations
- Reporting-ready summary deck or document assets — formatted for stakeholders
Grant Digital Closeout Pack
Final digital deliverables — bundled, evaluator-ready, fully handed over. Covers the closeout work most teams underestimate until the last quarter.
Closeout signed off — funder satisfied, deliverables archived, your team unblocked.
Who it's for
Grant-funded teams approaching reporting deadlines, closeout milestones, or consortium handover requirements.
Deliverables
- Data sprint and reporting assets — evidence of impact, clearly presented
- Lightweight website, dashboard, or project tool — visible outputs for stakeholders
- Documentation, guides, and handover pack — so the project continues after you
Research Tool MVP
Research tool development for web or mobile — built around how your team actually works in the field, in the lab, or at the desk. Dashboards, field-data capture, and lightweight research apps shipped in weeks.
A working tool that serves the research — not a product roadmap that outlives the grant.
Who it's for
Research groups, pilots, and institutional teams that need a fit-for-purpose tool without launching a full software product programme.
Deliverables
- Workflow mapping and scoped feature set — built around how your team actually works
- Responsive web app or mobile-first tool — usable in the field or office
- Admin logic, documentation, and implementation handover — so your team can run it confidently
MLOps for Research Teams
Validated models from notebook to production. Stable deployment, monitoring, and human-review routing — sized for a research team, not a hyperscale platform org.
A stable operational deployment with clear documentation — not experimental code.
Who it's for
Institutions that already have a validated model or evaluation logic and need a stable operational deployment rather than experimental code.
Deliverables
- Deployment pipeline and inference workflow — production-grade, not prototype
- Monitoring, fallback logic, or human review routing — so edge cases don't become crises
- Technical documentation and operational handover — for internal continuity
How We Work
Your team stays focused on the research. We handle the digital outputs.
Review
We review your grant specifications, project requirements, and delivery obligations — so the scope is anchored in what your funder will actually evaluate, not what looks impressive in a brochure.
You provide
Share your grant specs, project brief, and any existing materials or data.
Scope
We define the work precisely — no inflated roadmap, no unnecessary build. Just the outputs required to deliver well and on time.
You provide
Confirm priorities, timeline constraints, and stakeholder requirements.
Deliver
We build, document, and hand over the final outputs with the structure your team needs to use them confidently after delivery.
You provide
Review milestones and provide feedback. We handle the rest.
Flexible Ways to Start
You don't need to commit to a full project to begin. Choose the entry point that fits your situation.
Scope Review
A practical assessment of your delivery needs, timeline, and fit. No commitment — just clarity on what's possible.
Best for
Teams exploring options or unclear on exact requirements
Pilot Scope
A smaller initial work package to validate fit and delivery approach before committing to a larger engagement.
Best for
New relationships or projects with uncertainty
Phased Delivery
Break larger projects into defined phases with clear milestones, reducing risk and improving budget visibility.
Best for
Larger or longer-term delivery needs
Multi-Project Retainer
Continuous-engagement retainer for institutions juggling 5+ active grant-funded projects. Multi-year commitment, dedicated capacity, predictable annual cost. Most teams don't need this — Phased Delivery covers single-project depth at a fraction of the cost.
Best for
Research institutions with continuous multi-grant pipelines
All engagements include documentation and structured handover as standard.
Most teams start here
Delivery Examples
Real digital delivery work built for research and mission-driven contexts. Outcomes, not just outputs.
PROMISE: She Wins
Mobile assessment tool, cross-country analysis, and reporting assets developed for an EU-funded consortium of 6 European basketball federations.
Consistent evaluation data across 6 European federations — grant obligations met.
CoARA: Narrative CV Evaluation Pipeline
AI-assisted evaluation pipeline for researcher narrative CVs, designed to support structured review in line with CoARA principles.
Systematic, transparent evaluation workflow — clearer feedback, CoARA-aligned practices.
Neurodegenerative fMRI Full Data Analysis Pipeline
Full functional-connectivity analysis pipeline for a research group in Barcelona working on Alzheimer's disease, integrating ADNI fMRI and clinical phenotypes across 422 subjects spanning cognitively normal, MCI (early/late), and Alzheimer's groups.
A versioned analysis stack that takes raw fMRI to publication-ready figures — re-runnable as the cohort grows.
What we really needed was to stop worrying about data packaging and reports, and focus on the research. They got our project context from day one and delivered exactly what our funder wanted — without us being in five Zoom calls a week.

Why Teams Choose Pragma
We're not a generic dev agency. We're not a strategy consultancy. We build the things your grant promised.
Grant-Literate
We read your Annex 1, understand work packages, and know what evaluators expect from digital deliverables. No translation layer needed.
Execution-First
Strategy consultancies advise. We ship. Working platforms, documented pipelines, and handover packs — not slide decks.
EOSC & FAIR Aligned
Your outputs are built for open science: schema-aligned metadata, reproducible pipelines, and archival-ready documentation.
No HR Overhead
No salary negotiations, no university pay scales, no short-term contracts. One subcontract, clear deliverables, done.
Is Pragma the Right Fit?
We work best with funded projects that have specific digital outputs to deliver.
Good Fit
- You have a Horizon Europe, ERC, MSCA, national, or foundation-funded project with digital deliverables in the work plan
- Your team is non-technical or your RSE group is at capacity
- You need outputs that satisfy evaluators — not a prototype that lives on a PhD student's laptop
- Your timeline and budget for external services are defined
Probably Not a Fit
- Your scope is unclear or not defined
- The digital work is basic enough for REDCap or Google Forms (we'll tell you honestly)
