Quality Assurance

Minimum accuracy level is 99.95%. Data entry verification is 100% (that is, all data is entered twice, and the data is entered by different data entry specialists). Data files are then examined with cleaning software to identify any possible errors, and the identified errors are hand checked against the original questionnaire or document.

Machine Scanning

Mail or other surveys can be set up for machine scanning, which is less expensive than data entry by people, but the accuracy is not as good. The human eye can catch mistakes and errors that the scanners miss. Still, for very large projects, scanning is a method to consider. Scanning accuracy can be improved by human eyes scanning the questionnaire before machine scanning it.
