Description Of Services

As a highly capable survey firm, research firm, and consultancy firm, AIR Ltd successfully executed the following project phases:

1. Survey Office Setup & KoboToolbox Programming

First, our logistics team established a fully equipped project operations office to handle the massive workflow. We then customized the complex household data structures using KoboToolbox. To guarantee high-quality data capture, our programming experts ran extensive beta testing to verify all questionnaire logic before launching the fieldwork.

2. Field Survey Planning & Personnel Recruitment

Next, this consultancy firm developed a comprehensive field survey plan targeting diverse residential zones across Dhaka. We strategically interviewed and recruited the exact number of skilled field personnel needed for this detailed study. Consequently, AIR Ltd deployed field teams with specific experience in conducting sensitive household and activity diary tracking.

3. Intensive Staff Training & Field Piloting

Subsequently, our research firm delivered rigorous training modules and field piloting to ensure data collection standardization. We also organized all essential logistics, providing our field operators with tablets, customized bags, stationary, umbrellas, and official ID cards. Therefore, the enumerators remained fully prepared and highly recognizable during household visits.

4. Local Authorities Liaison & Security Measures

To maintain a safe and supportive field environment, our supervisors coordinated with local police stations across Dhaka. We shared our field movement schedules and support letters with law enforcement authorities. As a result, this proactive step eliminated on-site risks and allowed our teams to visit households without any operational interruptions.

5. Executing the Household Interview Survey (HIS)

Afterward, our Household Survey Consultancy AIR team executed wide-scale, face-to-face household surveys along the major transit corridors. Our enumerators carefully recorded family sizes, income levels, vehicle ownership, and daily trip-generation rates. Therefore, we compiled an authentic socio-economic database of Dhaka’s resident population.

6. Executing the Activity Diary Survey (ADS)

Simultaneously, we implemented the detailed Activity Diary Survey to capture minute-by-minute travel behaviors. Enumerators meticulously tracked daily travel logs, including start-stop times, waiting durations, and transfer points. Consequently, this study provided critical insights into how transit passengers split their daily activities across different transport modes.

7. Data Verification, Cleaning & Reporting

Finally, our data analytics division performed extensive data cleaning, processing, and consistency checks. We used advanced software to isolate discrepancies and cross-checked entries with automated field notes. Ultimately, AIR Ltd formatted the final dataset into a clean database, prepared a comprehensive study report, and submitted all deliverables.
