Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently asked questions about the Evalu8ing Survey System are:

How much does it cost?
The costs are based on the number of groups you define in the survey. The cost is $250 per group, therefore the minimum cost of a survey is $500 as you would need 2 groups to evalu8 each other. The maximum number of groups is 8, therefore the maximum cost is 8 x $250 = $2000. These costs include any applicable taxes and charges.

How do I pay?
You can either pay at the time of running the survey using PayPal and a valid credit card. Or if you know the number of groups and surveys you want to run you can pay up front by contacting Evalu8ing and nominating the number of surveys and the number of groups you want. We will then invoice you up-front and on payment provide coupons for the number of surveys you are doing.

How do I define a group?
Groups can be formal (established) or informal (defined by you). E.g. They can be various companies, such as suppliers, or they can be disciplines or departments within your company, they can be specialist areas within a group, or they can be similar groups distributed over a geographic area or any combination of the above. The main point is that groups should have clearly defined parameters and clearly defined relationships or interactions with each other.

Who is best to use it?
Evalu8ing can be used by anyone. It is available 24/7 online. Within an organization it can be used by procurement, marketing, sales, human resources, knowledge management, finance, or basically anyone wanting to measure, manage and maximize the many complex relationships and interactions within the organization. If you want independent manage and interpretation of the process, any consultant can use the system on your behalf. But we have preferred consultant partners who have access to greater functionality of the system and so are able to provide greater insight and value from the results.

How can I see the statements in the prepared panels?
Yes, go to our Sample Questions page and download the five standard panels of questions for you to review.

Can I use some of your statement in my own panel?
Of course. The prepared panel of statements within the system has been developed based on industry knowledge and experience. But we recommend that each user develop the statements that are specific to the key success drivers relevant to your requirements and situation. These may include some of the statements from the prepared panels or they may not. You can have up to 20 questions in your own customised survey. It is what ever works best for you.

Can I have different panels of statements for different groups in the survey?
No. There is one set of statements per survey because you are Evalu8ing and comparing each group against the same set of key success drivers. You can have different panels of statements in different surveys, but you cannot have different panels of statements in the one survey.

Are there any benchmarks for the results?
The benchmarks should be the constant improvement in the scores obtained on successive surveys. Within the survey you can set the range of response in the report to reflect previous average scores and thereby quickly determine where scores have improved or not.
