Local governments, NGOs, and/or corporations hire Mobile Metrix to gather specific information on an overlooked community. Mobile Metrix works with our partners to develop sound and customized survey instruments to ensure that the survey captures the information that the client needs, while protecting the privacy of those surveyed. This can range from basic demographic information (e.g., to inform a government on where to locate new schools) or client specific information (e.g., per capita mosquito net adoption and reasons why some households have nets and others don’t).
Mobile Metrix identifies leaders in these impoverished communities who can spearhead the local Mobile Metrix operation. Once a local leader is chosen, we hire teams of local youth to be MobileAgents™, who conduct door-to-door surveys of their own communities using digital handheld computers. Mobile Metrix trains the MobileAgents™ in professionalism, computing skills and surveying techniques. This community-based digital data collection is the cornerstone of Mobile Metrix’s value and success.
Once the data is collected, it is analyzed, stripped of identifying information, and shared with the client and the community itself. We provide timely, accurate data that captures the reality of these overlooked communities so that resources can be customized to meet their needs.
