Three reports are typically published for each primary research project. Each report contains the results on how companies, typically North American and European industrial and high tech companies, responded to the questions; along with observations, analysis and key findings written by GGI's research team.

Our "Highlights" Report contains in-depth text of these results across the survey population.

Our "Summary" Report adds extensive graphics to our Highlights Report.

Our "Detailed Results" Report is the Summary Reoprt plus additional cross-section analyses of the survey data: Public vs. Private, High-Tech vs. Low-Tech, Large Revenues vs. Small Revenues, Many Employees vs. Few Employees, and Process vs. Repetitive vs. Discrete vs. Job-Shop Operations.
