Decision at Company level:
- Is outsourcing more cost effective than conducting the work internally?
- Whether it is more feasible to explore the possibility of moving forward with a Indian Partner or not?
- Does the Indian partner have the required skills to perform complex analysis as and when required and will they be in a position to meet our strict Timelines?
Initial Discussions - Clarifications
- Does the partner have the capability to perform the tasks outlined?
- Can the outsourcing partner do data analysis such as regression, correlations, PCA, sig testing such as Chi squared, anovas, T-Tests and Z-Tests?
- Does their capability also include Conjoint and TURF analysis?
- What are the costs for table production (with all sig tests), charting and coding verbatim comments?
Proposed Plan:
ME proposed to move forward with a test project to establish proof of concept to help the company evaluate capability.
A previously tested clean set of statistical tables were sent across to report salient points and report significant findings that will help their clients sell their products.
