Quality measures @ AZR Systems and controls to ensure no noise creeps in data
At AZR we follow the principle of having processes and protocols to ensure that quality of data collection and data analysis is above acceptance level. However, at the same time, we also believe in keeping checks in place to continually assess the quality of the data collected. These aspects put together ensure a 360 degree focus on quality of data collected, analysed and reported.
• Training and mock calls of interviewers – to ensure no gap in their comprehension
• Scrutinize all the questionnaires to see any patterns for each interviewer
• Supervisor accompanies 10% of calls• Supervisor physically back checks 30%
calls• Field executive back checks 10% of calls• FM randomly back checks some calls
• Duplicating data to weed out noise Do double punching of data - and accept only the data that completely overlaps.
• Data that doesn’t match is sent for re-punching
• Logical cleaning of data – to ensure that no logical error creeps in the data

At AZR we have a regular audit process for all jobs to track quality
Audit department is an independent department at AZR which is not a research or field function and reports directly to CFO
• Audit department is an independent unit at AZR which is not a research or field function and reports directly to CFO. This department calls randomly selected respondents from a central call centre at Bangalore.
• These respondents are asked some key questions to check the interview was conducted and was conducted with correct profile and lasted for the expected time. This is done for every project.
• Feedback from this is sent directly to CFO and the field teams are incentivized / penalized on every project basis the report from the audit department
• This is regularly conducted on every project and has overtime brought up our fieldwork quality assurance to impeccable levels. Currently on all projects we see > 95% correct results in our audits
