Kitting & Packaging

DataForce provides professional package assembly for all of your survey and assessment projects. Our dedicated in-house kitting team ensures that even your most complex builds are managed with spot-on accuracy.

Common kitting projects include:

 

Class Packs

We can pack multiple items to spec – including class header sheets, surveys, assessments, and administrator instructions – making it easier for you to distribute materials on-site and keep materials together when they are returned.

 

Interviewer Field Kits

These kits can contain 5 or 50 items depending on the work being done in the field. A kit could consist of the following items along with sub-kits within the primary kit – incuding pens, stamps, note cards, brochures, receipts, door hangers, letters and more.

Projects often have many different kits and sub-kits. As materials become available, DataForce monitors the inventory application. Once all materials are available for any kit, a work order is submitted to operations for the quantity required. Only the inventory needed for the quantity required is pulled. The initial kits will be built, and we will take either a video or pictures to give an exploded view of the kit for your approval. Only upon your approval will operators will be given a packing list and sample to complete the buildout.

Warehousing & Distribution

DataForce provides secured storage for your paper-based documents in our fully-equipped 15,000 sf warehouse. Whether your project requires staged mailings or simply extra stock for future use, your sensitive materials will be safely stored and strictly monitored. Only authorized personnel are allowed into the areas of operation. Unauthorized personnel are required to sign in/out and must be accompanied by an authorized escort.

Incentive Fulfillment

From rewards cards to gift cheques, promotional items to charitable donations, DataForce can manage your entire incentive fulfillment program to help you reach target response rates of up to 40%+ Our gift card options are the most complete in the industry. Unlike other mail survey companies, DataForce has a relationship with the banks, so we are able to provide Gift Cards in bulk that do not expire, as well as Closed Loop and Prepaid Rewards Cards. We’ll help you determine the best incentive reward for your project and ensure you stay within compliance of the laws than govern them.

Return Management

Once you send your survey out, you need to accurately receive all the results. DataForce is equipped to handle this with impeccability so you can focus on processing the information without distraction. We can provide you with prepaid return shipping labels with outgoing bulk shipments – for higher response rate and reduced follow up. Whichever way you choose to receive your results, DataForce makes it seamless and error-free.

We can receive your results in the following ways:

 

Secured Receiving

This method ensures that even the most sensitive materials (like high stakes student testing) are efficiently returned without ever being exposed to the potential risks inherent with strict compliance regulations.

 

Prepaid Returns

Prepaid mailing has been empirically proven to drive higher response rates and help your organization collect better data. Take advantage of DataForce’s prepaid accounts to effectively administer all of your survey projects.

 

Standard Receiving

Whether your company prefers to receive bulk responses or individual responses, DataForce has the business processes in place to receive your returned surveys efficiently and effectively.

DataForce can manage all aspects of your research project, from printing and fulfillment to data processing, reporting and analytics. Whether you need one-stop shop support, or help with any aspect of your survey and test administration, DataForce has a solution for you.
