Our field services
Hardware and software usage
An optimal respondent experience is key to a successful project.
- Hardware. We ensure your target groups have seamless access to your questionnaire – using iPads, laptops, PCs, mobiles and other devices. Our devices also support externally-scripted surveys, which can be accessed using a link or an app.
- Software. We set up and script your questionnaire into the appropriate format, displaying it in the most user-friendly way. We can also supply data in variety of formats: SPSS, Excel, charts… just tell us what you want.
Sourcing, purchasing, storing, sending and serving products
When it comes to product sensory or package testing, we understand the importance of following the brief to the absolute letter. We’re experienced in purchasing products from select importers and matching batch codes, as well as storing products in particular climates for precision testing.
- In Home Use Testing (IHUT) studies. We can package and co-ordinate the products to be delivered to testers anywhere in Australia.
- In-person sensory tests. We follow strict guidelines regarding timings, product temperature, palate cleansers, rotations, etc.
- Package tests. Utilise our in-house supermarket shelving for shelf tests. We can also partner with eye-tracking experts as required.
Finding and booking research venues
Want the best environment for your face-to-face research? Make use of our specially-designed rooms here at Ekas, or ask us to source other locations for you. Whether you’re running large tests, small focus groups, IDIs, car clinics, in-store intercepts or any other project, we’ll find a venue to meet your needs.
Incentives, rewards and redemptions
Setting up and running a rewards and redemptions process can be time consuming. We’ll consult with you on suitable incentivisation strategies, depending on the respondent type and methodology. Once we’ve designed the structure, leave it to us to reward the respondents.
