How We Control Quality

MISI prevents mistakes in data gathering and processing from contaminating survey results by building internal quality-control checks into each step of the research process.

We closely review all client-provided survey materials to ensure that only unflawed studies are distributed to the field.

We support a full-scale in-house coding department to bring added-value and consistency to every research project.

We work only with field supervisors across the country who are trained in our strict procedures to ensure consistent field research and tabulation accuracy.

We meticulously review each day's field work and require daily progress reports to keep projects on schedule and on budget.

We build independent checks into our tabulation system to ensure proper identification of multi-cell studies.
