Here are the top 10 reasons why NYAS Research is the best Social Research Surveys Company in India –
- Automated: From Data Collection to Data analysis and data representation, most of the processes at NYAS Research are substantially automated. We believe that carefully automated processes are key to efficient services, and we are continuously striving for a greater deployment of technology
- Respondents and not Subjects: NYAS Research is strictly against the general misperception of respondents and participants in a study, as subjects. We consider all as equals and assign equal agency to all.
- 10 Year Experience: For more than 10 years, NYAS Research, which is a survey and research organization, was actively engaged in providing service of primary data collection, arranging secondary data, conducting randomized control trial studies, implementing designed BDM games, investigating opinion and thoughts from the respondent’s by presenting scenarios in conjoint experiments in many research and survey projects. In our past works, we conducted research, survey projects in many sectors. Some of them are list below –
- Energy

Having more than 10 years of experience NYAS research has worked in almost all states and geographical regions of India, as well as in naxal and terrorism affected areas.
- Strategically Targeted Investment: At NYAS Research, each frontline professional has to qualify the Basic Qualification Test (BQT) to be sent on an assignment. BQTs are project-specific tests, designed in collaboration with the client, that help filter out individuals not fit to undertake an assignment. Boot camps are organized every month to enable professionals qualify BQTs. NYAS Research also discourages ‘gigs’ in data collection. Frontline professionals at NYAS Research are usually those who have a long history in data collection and are aware of the challenges on ground.
- Study-Based Method Adoption: At NYAS Research we understand that each study is unique and to pass each study through similar processes will be unjust to our client and to our objectives. Although the processes remain the same for all the studies, we alter the sub-process to come up with the best possible strategies for the project.
- Data security: Your data is safe with NYAS Research. We use the Amazon web server, one of the most secure servers, to host our data. We also have a very strict data security policy.
- Not Just a Data collection Agency: NYAS Research is not just a data collection agency. We also excel in providing beyond data collection services. We understand the development space better than any other data collection agency which is often entirely run by software experts. Professionals at NYAS Research have training in disciplines like Public Policy, Sociology, Political Science, Statistics, Economics, and Computer Science. The backbone of NYAS Research is a battery of specialists and not generalists. We seek an overhaul in how the social sector operates and in how it is perceived. We, therefore, do not just guarantee reliable and beyond satisfactory services, we actually deliver them.
- Strong Data Quality Control Mechanism: To test the universality of any theory, to make any policy, plan, or program feasible, it is very important to collect realistic data from the field. So, it is very obvious that the researcher wants to collect good quality data. But unfortunately, the priority of Research firms and companies is quantity not quality, and moreover, people involved are engaged in data collection with distracted focus. In simple we can say, their quality control mechanism is very poor and old. Keeping this problem and past experiences in mind ‘NYAS Research & Development Pvt.Ltd.’ adopted a strong quality control mechanism to maintain the consistent output of good quality data both for quantitative and qualitative research. For this, we made each unit accountable involved in the data collection process. At NYAS Research we have developed the necessary mechanisms for good implementation of the project so that communication between field, office and client or Researcher can continue meaningfully and effectively and quickly rectify the inconsistencies in data collection in a timely manner. In this system, quick necessary feedback can be given to field enumerators from Data Manager, Office Monitor, Field Supervisor, quality control team as well as from Principal Researcher Team.
We at ‘NYAS Research’ also prefer the Back-check method. In this process, we usually select 5 to 10 percent of the total sample size of the data for back-checking to maintain the quality. In the process of this backchecking, we assign some samples for telephonic to backcheck too. To maintain the quality ‘NYAS Research’ also adopted new technological tools such as live monitoring, SurveyCTO custom App, Customised App, etc. So, we at ‘NYAS’ hope to create a realistic, accurate quality data bank to serve society and the Nation.
- Data Sharing Within 48 Hours: It is very keen in all the researchers that they get the initial set of data of their projects as soon as possible so that they can detect and correct any discrepancies in them timely.
Keeping this fact in mind, we have coordinated and organized all the units in the company ‘NYAS Research’ in such a way and develop a standard protocol that enables us to share the first set of data with the researcher within 48 hours or less.
To achieve the goal of this time-bound service, the field team must be stick to a work plan developed in advance and start their work on time and submit or upload the data to the server at a fixed time at the end of the day. On the next working day, the data team at the office starts data exportation, matching, and very much required initial data cleaning without altering any collected info. For the smooth uploading and downloading of data and in any technical problem, a dedicated technical team provide 24*7 support to Office and Field members
Apart from this, after sharing the data of the first set, we can continue to share the data within 36 hours or 24 hours depending on the nature of the project.
- Live Monitoring of The Project: Monitoring is an inevitable part of any survey, research, and intervention. By a well-established monitoring system, we can track exactly the work is going on with quality or not. We at ‘NYAS Research and Development Pvt. Ltd’, adopt a very strong monitoring system and the process by which we can ensure the work with a set protocol. This system forms the basis for the modification in intervention and assessing the quality of activities being conducted. It helps with identifying the most valuable and efficient use of resources.
In our work culture and process, we pay close attention to daily work assignments for any survey or research project and adopt diverse strategies to ensure quality output. We can elaborate one by one.
1. Monitoring by Field Supervisor:
Every working day, He/ She monitors the fixed number of surveys of his /her team members randomly and gives feedback to the office in the daily report and they get appropriate instructions for further improvement.
2. Data validation:
On a daily basis, the data team keeps eye on the collected data and identifies any inconsistencies.
3. Backcheck:
We at ‘NYAS Research’ prefer 5-10 % surveys to be backchecked by a separate team. For this, we with the client prepare a short template that covers almost all important things of quality concerns and asks the team to re-interview the respondents using this very short questionnaire. We cancel the whole original interview if found any quality concerns and ensure to conduct a fresh interview.
4. Audio Monitoring:
In the digitized questionnaire, ‘NYAS Research’ applies the custom recordings in which we select some important questions to be recorded. And, we replace these with new questions frequently. Sometimes, we apply full recording of the whole interview. A dedicated team of Monitoring (office) hears the recording and identify inconsistencies in data and then report to the ‘Data Manager & ‘Project Manager’ for further suitable action.
5. Live Monitoring:
Randomly, we select team members for Live monitoring on daily basis and ask the enumerators to share their mobile screens (on Zoom, google meet, Team, etc.). Our team at the office observes response entry as well as conversation.
Thus, we can claim that ‘NYAS Research and Development’ adopt strong quality control and monitoring mechanism with the latest technologies and fulfill the commitment to deliver the best quality data to the researcher.
