Design Study with Different Materials

During various types of static analyses I am often asked to try different materials along with geometry variations. I have become familiar with design studies to help automate the proposed changes in the design but I have yet to find an easy way to change materials in between analyses without creating entirely new analyses. My hope is that there is a way to set the material as a parameter or a variable of some kind that can be changed similar to how a standard design study can vary geometry.

Does anyone know if this is possible or of any reasonable alternatives?

Thanks in advance,
