Asplor applies behavioural science frameworks to research design, analysis and strategy helping clients uncover the subconscious drivers, cognitive biases and emotional triggers that shape real-world decisions across healthcare, consumer and automotive contexts. We go beyond stated preference to reveal actual behaviour.
Decision Behaviour & Cognitive Bias Research
Research designed around established frameworks including COM-B, dual-process theory and nudge principles to understand how consumers, patients and professionals actually make decisions under real-world conditions rather than survey conditions.

B2B & Industrial Research
Business-to-business research demands a fundamentally different approach from consumer research longer sales cycles, complex stakeholder ecosystems, technical subject matter and respondents who are difficult to access and short on time. Asplor's B2B and industrial research practice is built around these realities. We conduct qualitative and quantitative research with decision-makers, procurement heads, technical buyers, channel partners and C-suite executives across manufacturing, technology, logistics, energy and professional services sectors.
B2B Customer Satisfaction & Loyalty Research

We help technology vendors understand why prospects hesitate, what drives conversion and where product-market fit needs strengthening.
Ethnographic & Cultural Insights
Some of the most powerful consumer insights cannot be captured in a survey or a focus group. Ethnographic research takes researchers into the real world into homes, workplaces, shops and daily routines to observe what people actually do, not just what they say they do. Asplor's ethnographic and cultural insights practice delivers richly contextual, human-centred research across South Asia, South East Asia and the Middle East helping global brands and local organisations understand the cultural, behavioural and environmental forces that shape real decisions.

Built for insight teams that need to move fast without sacrificing quality or rigour.
Rapid Turnaround Research Studies
Structured research studies designed for speed delivering validated, decision-ready findings within days rather than weeks. Rapid qualitative and quantitative methodologies that maintain rigour while dramatically compressing timelines for organisations that cannot wait for traditional research cycles.
