An Omani corporation wanted to carry out ethnographic research on energy topics with a diverse range of target groups, including petrol station customers, independent retailers, commercial fleet procurement and operations managers, energy managers for large commercial buildings. The sample included both Omanis and ex-pats.
We recruited almost 50 respondents in total for three phases of research, and provided on-the-ground support including transport and interpreters for the interviews which took place in Arabic. Some of the initial interviews took place at the respondents’ places of work while others took place at a central location in Muscat that was booked by FieldworkHub. In the latter stages we conducted a mix of online interviews and in-home interviews.
We recently embarked on a new longitudinal research project and were looking for a reliable, long-term recruitment partner. FieldworkHub were recommended to us, and they were outstanding. The team didn’t let anything drop and kept us fully informed during the entire project, which instilled a huge amount of confidence in the team at AMV. I have no hesitation recommending them.
Thanks for all of FieldworkHub’s help and responsiveness on this project, making it a smooth process.
