SHINE Consulting
We provide consulting services to academic, research Government, NGO and private sector clients. Services and deliverable include more detailed population health intervention evaluations and outputs than possible with our free-to-user tools.
Consulting
SHINE Consulting provides services to clients in academia and research, Government and policy institutions, NGOs and the private sector. These clients likely need estimates of health, cost and cost effectiveness to estimate intervention impacts and aid decision making and prioritisation of interventions. We estimate these intervention impacts using our sophisticated proportional multistate lifetable (PMSLT) simulation modelling framework and associated data input pipelines and output processing. We may also be able to provide services and deliverables for related topics, e.g.: logic models of intervention pathways and impacts; critical evaluation of key studies and data that might be used to model interventions; more sophisticate epidemiological outputs (e.g. morbidity impact of interventions) and more sophisticated economic outputs (e.g. net monetary benefit comparing multiple intervention options).
Many consulting projects will start with a proposed population intervention that SHINE consulting can help you quantify the likely health and economic outcomes associated with its implementation – ranging from future health gains, health inequality impacts, health expenditure changes, and income impacts. Critically, SHINE specialises in quantifying health impacts by ‘heterogeneity’, which includes differential impacts of interventions by: sex and age; ethnicity and Indigeneity; socioeconomic status; and disease risk stratification (e.g. absolute risk of a cardiovascular event or cancer diagnosis in the next five years).
We can provide services, deliverables, and outputs for clients from any country. Send us an inquiry using the link below.
Testimonials
"The modelling work Tony, Driss and team did for us was extremely useful. They were able to model all the key policies we were considering for the Smokefree Aotearoa 2025 Action Plan, to show when each policy would get our population groups to the 5% goal. They were able to meet our requirement for a strong equity focus, by focusing on key population groups. The results were clearly presented in accessible graphs. The financial savings they modelled were key to making the case for these policies. This was an example of research being well designed and executed, with the crucial end result of influencing policy. And that policy will have a huge impact on improving outcomes. The results of their research will be of interest to a wide range of researchers and policy makers, around the world."

"An independent review of 25 international tobacco control models rate the BODE3 tobacco model top. This BODE3 tobacco model was developed by Professor Blakely whilst Director of BODE3, and the model is now further evolved e.g. to include vaping) and embedded in SHINE. The SHINE PMSLT uses the same ‘back end’ as in the tobacco model, conferring a stamp of quality for any other intervention modelling SHINE does."
