What we do
We provide comprehensive support in designing rigorous research methodologies and developing tested research tools, to ensure that every study is methodologically sound, contextually relevant, and powered by effective data collection tools and technology.
Methodology design
Every research question demands a unique approach. We work with you to design rigorous quantitative, qualitative, or mixed-method methodologies that are tailored to your context and objectives. Our focus is on ensuring methodological integrity, i.e. choosing the right design, sampling strategies, and analytical pathways to produce credible and actionable insights. Whether you are conducting baseline surveys, evaluations, or exploratory studies, we help you select and implement methods that best capture the realities you aim to study.
Questionnaire development
High-quality data begins with well-designed tools. We assist in developing research instruments: questionnaires, interview guides, and observation checklists, that are clear, precise, and aligned with your study objectives. Each tool is tailored to your research design and audience, ensuring that questions are structured to capture valid and reliable information. We also support you in pre-testing and piloting to refine tools for maximum clarity and effectiveness.
Technology integration
We help integrate appropriate digital platforms to make your data collection process efficient, accurate, and scalable. Our expertise spans platforms such as KoboToolbox, ODK, Qualtrics, and other survey management tools. We provide support with form design, configuration, field team training, and troubleshooting to ensure seamless data capture and real-time quality control during fieldwork.
