At Progressive we realise that you may not always require full service research so we can supply you with the field or data services that you do require.

Whether your project is large or small, qualitative or quantitative, we have the know-how to get it done to your specification.

Field

The field team has depth of experience in undertaking all types of face-to-face fieldwork, telephone interviewing, focus group/depth discussion recruitment, hall tests, pedestrian flow counting, postal surveys and more.

From our offices in Edinburgh we manage a network of 15 area supervisors and nearly 800 field interviewers that covers the whole of the UK. Our field force has experience on pen and paper surveys as well as CAPI (computer aided personal interviewing) which gives clients more scope for what can be done during an interview.

Progressive has a 30-stong in-house telephone research unit working with CATI (computer aided telephone interviewing).

All of our work is carried out to ISO 20252 Quality Standards as well as IQCS within the telephone unit. We also follow the MRS Code of Conduct and guidelines.

You will find us to be friendly, people-orientated, with a down-to-earth, hands-on approach.

Data Services

Whether you are simply looking for a fast, efficient and cost-effective data entry supplier or for someone to perform complex multivariate analyses, Progressive has the right people with the right skills to get you the results you need.

Once your fieldwork is complete, we have a team experienced in both manual data entry and scanning of questionnaires to capture your data quickly and accurately. We can also analyse any existing electronic data file you have - our software supports all standard file types, including ASCII, comma / tab separated & SPSS files.

We have a wide range of analytical experience and can tailor your output to meet your requirements for any given project. From more basic analysis, such as crosstabulations, significance testing or mean scores, to more advanced techniques like cluster analysis, correlations or regression, we are able to get you the very best from your data.

Progressive understands that you need the very best quality data to enable you to make the right decisions. We have strict quality control procedures that ensure you're getting the true picture and all our work complies with the MRS Code of Conduct and the Data Protection Act.

Online Surveying

We are able to create high quality and attractive online questionnaires. Clear and intuitive layout and straightforward navigation ensure a smooth experience for the respondent. Questionnaires can be fully branded with your company logo and colouring. We can also take control of managing your database and sending invitation emails - reminder emails can be set up to only target those who have not responded.
