Barem Research International believes in total quality. Our output, at every stage of our work, depends on the quality of the input. Finding the right representative group and managing to interview them is vital for the research. Field is where it all begins.

Barem Research International has its own field department, which is very important for the data reliability. We do not outsource any of our field activities. Our field executives and supervisors are experts in sampling, field controls and interview monitoring. Also field department has its own resources such as Respondent and Interviewer Databanks. Within seconds we are capable of filtering respondents according to the recruitment criteria.

Barem Research International considers interviewer efficiency to be extremely important. When we mean efficiency, we are talking about the way he speaks, the way he behaves, the way he is dressed, the way he fills out the questionnaire, the way he represents us; and the way he represents you. This is surely a matter of continuous training and inspection. We spend more time on their training than any other research company. We have ways to check if they’re doing their jobs right.

Our interviewer database keeps record of their past performance, including for which sectors he has realised interviews, how many interviews he has realised so far, and other important information. Our backcheck levels are at least three times greater than ESOMAR standards and also the backcheck is realised with the use of advanced statistics methods. Since we believe in the accuracy of the fieldwork gives you the most accurate results, when you work with Barem Research International, you know that you are getting exact results from the field.

The fieldwork is part of the whole research process, but you can ask us for an individual field study. We can fulfil such requirements as well. Our experienced field staff is always ready to handle your specific requests, whether you believe you can handle the data yourself, or you are an international research firm who wish to conduct a study in Turkey.
