1. Planning meetings with the City to establish the topics to be <br /> covered in the survey. Based on these topic concepts, DRL would <br /> word specific, neutral questions. These activities would be <br /> completed within one week of the initiation of the contract. <br /> 2. Structuring of questions and final approval of the survey <br /> instrument. These activities to be completed within two weeks <br /> after initial meetings. <br /> 3 . Final determination of the field dates for interviewing. <br /> 4. Pre-testing and, if needed, approval of resulting revisions. <br /> This activity to be completed by the second day of field work. <br /> 5. Completion of all fieldwork within a two week period. <br /> 6. Computer analysis and preparation of written report. All <br /> analytical analysis and commentary will be available within four <br /> weeks after completion of the field work. <br /> 7. Meetings with the City in either a work session or formal <br /> presentation to explain and discuss the results of the study. <br /> The final discussion and strategy session can be arranged at a <br /> time convenient for all parties. <br /> DRL personnel are also willing to attend a reasonable number of <br /> additional meetings for dissemination of the data. On-going <br /> telephone consultation about any part of the study, analysis, or <br /> implications is also included for the duration of the usefulness <br /> of the data, usually two-to-three years. <br /> PROJECT COSTS: <br /> The cost of a 60 question unit survey based upon a 400 household <br /> random sample would be $5, 800. 00. Each additional question <br /> unit beyond the initial sixty would be $90. 00. If the <br /> questionnaire length were less than this initial es-t mate, a <br /> reduction in the cost would result. <br /> Included in this cost is the construction of the questionnaire <br /> instruments, all survey methodology, two bound copies of the <br /> written analysis, one volume of crosstabs and related statistical <br /> tests, an executive summary of the highlights of the study, and a <br /> reasonable number of presentations and work sessions. <br /> As company policy, DRL requires one-half of the cost prior to the <br /> commencement of field work; the remainder is due upon delivery of <br /> the final written report. Unless otherwise arranged, DRL <br /> invoices clients at the time of the approval of the survey <br /> instrument and prior to any fieldwork. <br /> I hope this proposal sufficiently covers all the information you <br /> 3 <br />
