Sentenium
has developed and honed advanced procedures that ensure data quality,
integrity, and accuracy throughout the course of our clients' research
projects. Everything we do is in keeping with evolving market research
industry standards.
Our
proprietary tracking technology, STracker, ensures
that every document or survey we process is "visible" and
accounted for through every stage of processing. We can track
every document or survey, and every single data file connected
to a document or survey, with a unique code. This is especially
relevant when dealing with relational databases (such as Microsoft
Access, Quattro, mySQL, and Oracle), since by definition such
databases involve multiple data files which depend on each
other.
At
our clients' request and/or our recommendation, we also perform
additional validation techniques such as:
- Data
/ Range checks: We use these checks to identify invalid data, such as
data that is not within a stated or logical range.
- Double
verification: We have separate people enter data into
a system manually, and both sets of data are compared
against the original documents received.
- Duplicate
case checks: We uncover and correct situations where,
for example, one individual has multiple identification
numbers. This is especially relevant when working with
relational databases.
