Open-end Question Coding
Our highly experienced Coding Department includesnative speakers of 13 different languages., plus another 20 languages through partners in the respective countries. Open-end survey questions can be coded, as well as CRM comments and any type of text.
Machine Text Analytics
For large datafiles (as from social media, CRM systems, etc.) text analytics software is an option. Software is not as accurate as the human mind but may be good enough in some instances. We generally recommend taking a subset of the data and having humans do the coding, to compare to the software coding results.
Data Entry
For paper surveys or documents, all survey responses are entered twice, to create two mirror datafiles (i.e., 100% verification). These two datafiles are matched and any differences resolved by checking the source documents. Guaranteed accuracy rate is 99.95%.
Data Cleaning
Before any datafile is tabulated, a series of data cleaning checks are performed, to check for out-of-range codes, duplicate records, skip logic errors, omissions, etc.
Multiple Databases
Data from multiple data sources can be combined into one integrated database, and then cross-tabbed and analyzed.

Significance testing can be applied to columns and rows of tabulated results, and complex weighting schemes can be applied to the data.
