Our Services

We help organisations make better decisions, design stronger strategies, and deliver initiatives that achieve real impact.

Our work combines practical knowledge and sectoral understanding with clear analysis to reduce uncertainty, highlight opportunities and ensure that projects, programmes and policies are well positioned for success.

We provide support across the full policy and innovation cycle, from shaping strategies and business cases, to testing the feasibility of projects, through to evaluating outcomes and identifying future needs.

“It was a pleasure to work with Optimat on the Grangemouth Hydrogen hub project. Optimat’s deep industry understanding and local knowledge helped to produce a clear synthesis of insights and identify opportunities and challenges for hydrogen in the Grangemouth cluster.”
