OPERATION (cont.)
Field Work

Field activities toward completing the survey would
involve:
 Sending out questionnaires
 Follow up calls
 Group briefing
 Personal visits and interviews
Issues and Challenges





No population in number of innovation company
Awareness program
Not enough staff - outsource to consultant
Procurement process
Low response rate
 Telephone hot-line - was made available to respondents
 Training the enumerators - for follow up calls as well as
for personal interviews.
 Reminder letters – to encourage higher response rate
 QA – need to ensure correct interpretation of question.
