IRIS Research commenced operations in 1980 and is headquartered in Wollongong, New South Wales. HistoryThe original idea of a regional information service for the Illawarra was first proposed in 1977. With the help of the University of Wollongong, Wollongong City Council, Shellharbour City Council and the New South Wales Government, the Illawarra Regional Information Service commenced operations in July 1980.[1] Its primary responsibility was to provide sufficient information to enhance the economic and social development of the region.[2] Since that time, the activities of IRIS Research have spread across Australia. IRIS Research currently conducts projects for over 40 local councils across NSW and Queensland,[3] a range of State government and Federal government departments and major private sector organisations such as BHP, BlueScope, IMB Banking & Financial Services and the WIN Corporation.[2] When IRIS Research began in 1980, it was Australia's first computer-based information service. A practice that has since become standard in research companies nationwide.[4] Services ProvidedMarket & Social ResearchIRIS Research conducts both market and social research. The contract research provided is tailored to the client's specific needs and can be both qualitative and quantitative. The organisation interprets raw data and draws implications for social and marketing strategy. IRIS Research conducts all fieldwork services in-house in its IQCA accredited Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing facility. The organisation also runs focus groups, in-depth interviews and online surveys.[5] Local Government & Community ConsultationIRIS Research has had extensive experience in research and consultancy for local government. It specialises in social and strategic planning, local government specialisation, economic analysis, tourism, regional development and skills audits. This long history has helped IRIS Research to become the leading research organisation for local governments in Australia.[6] Regional StatisticsIRIS Research conducts a number of economic analyses for regions across Australia. Through surveys, data series and intimate knowledge of the local economy, IRIS Research is able to provide feasibility, market potential and economic impact statements for each region.[7] References1. ^{{cite news |title=Integral support over 30 years: IRIS RESEARCH 30th Anniversary 1980-2010 |work=Illawarra Mercury |date=23 September 2010 |agency=Fairfax Media }} 2. ^1 {{cite news |title=Annual Report - 2010 IRIS Research |url=http://www.iris.org.au/system/files/f1/o406//2010%20Short%20Report%205.pdf | format=PDF |page=3}} 3. ^{{cite web |url = http://www.iris.org.au/index.pl?page=420 |title = Local Government clients |accessdate= 2013-08-17 }} 4. ^{{cite news |title=Annual Report - 2010 IRIS Research |url=http://www.iris.org.au/system/files/f1/o406//2010%20Short%20Report%205.pdf | format=PDF |page=2}} 5. ^{{cite web |url = http://www.iris.org.au/index.pl?page=198 |title = Market & Social Research |accessdate= 2013-08-17 }} 6. ^{{cite web |url = http://www.iris.org.au/index.pl?page=419 |title = Local Government & Community Consultation |accessdate= 2013-08-17 }} 7. ^{{cite web |url = http://www.iris.org.au/index.pl?page=194 |title = Regional Statistics |accessdate= 2013-08-17 }} External links
