Commission · Comparison of two existing waves
Year-beside-Year Reading
A Year-beside-Year Reading is for an organisation that asked almost the same things twice and now needs a calm account of the difference. It is not a fresh design and it is not a single-wave briefing.
From 42,000 THB · About three weeks once both waves are in the room
Who brings this work
Places that repeat a guest card, a member form, or a parent questionnaire each year and want the two piles read together.
What you leave with
Paired plates, a written account of movement and of questions that cannot be compared, and a sitting.
Read in East Samwa, with one two-hour sitting at our office or, for an additional fee, at your premises in Bangkok.
Inside the fee
- A check that the two forms really match, question by question
- Paired plates for questions that survived unchanged
- A clear mark on any question whose wording, order, or audience changed
- Comment themes compared only where the open prompt was the same
- A written reading and one two-hour sitting at our office
Outside the fee
- A third wave
- Repairing a broken comparison by rewriting history
- Drafting next year's form (that is a Questionnaire Commission)
How the days run
- Match the forms. We lay both blank questionnaires side by side and mark every change in wording, scale, or who was asked. You confirm that list before we count.
- Paired counts. Only matched questions are drawn as pairs. Unmatched questions are described on their own so a wording change is not presented as a change in customers.
- Sitting. We spend the hour on what moved enough to matter for the decision you named, and on what only appears to have moved.
What to send before we begin
- Both blank forms
- Both sets of returns, kept separate
- Notes on anything that changed in the building between the two waves, such as a renovation or a new desk procedure
Limits we will name at intake
- If the forms share only a logo, we will say so and suggest two separate briefings instead of a false pair.
- Each wave should be within 400 returns on this fee. A heavier pair is quoted at intake.
The fee, in plain terms
42,000 THB for two waves already collected, up to 400 returns each, sitting at our office. The premises fee of 6,500 THB applies if the sitting is held at your address in Bangkok. This fee assumes the questions are largely the same. A heavy rewrite between years may be declined as a comparison and offered as two readings.
