Our Quotations to You

Updated 21 January 2026.
 

In the table below you find the projects for which we have submitted a quotation. This is a private page and only you can view the rates offered to you. We update progress of our quotations on a regular basis and maintain this list for all of our bids dating back one full year.

The displayed fees are based on our best pick from the WRA subscriber with the best fit for the project: whose offer was the more compelling in terms of cost, quality of response and credentials. “# Bids” informs you how many different quotations we received from our subscribers for the project.

Some clarifications regarding the status of quotations:
 
  • Aborted: you cancelled the survey, it proved not feasible or there is a disagreement about business terms.
  • Closed: the quotation has expired (older than 3 months) and/or there is no response to our follow-ups.
  • Lost: either you did not win the project or you commissioned the survey to a vendor outside of the WRA network.
  • Won: we received the engagement.
  • Pending: awaiting your decision.

“W” in the methodology refers to “web”, implying online.

A “session” is typically an interview or group discussion. Occasionally this may also be an hour’s worth of fieldwork.

The “Best Unit US$” is derived by dividing the total survey value by the number of sessions and it is therefore inclusive of all services – including optional ones – such as non-variable costs from tasks like project management, reporting etc. In case of a combination of methodologies, fixed costs for a project are distributed in accordance with the number of sessions. The displayed rates are always in US Dollars even if we quoted in a different currency.

Terms

  • Generally quotations are in US Dollars, valid for three months and subject to reviewing the research material as well as the number of commissioned locations.
  • We reserve the right to adjust rates when changes in the specification lead to a significant departure of that outlined in this quotation.
  • Unless otherwise specified in the quotation, the payment terms are 50/50 with the first payment due before mobilising the survey and the balance – invoiced upon completing fieldwork – within 15 – 30 days of receiving the final invoice. 15 days for fieldwork only surveys and 30 days for a full service project.
  • We consider a survey commissioned when the client confirms to this effect by virtue of a written confirmation by email, regardless of the existence of a signed service agreement.
  • We launch fieldwork after settlement of the first invoice has been received and after the service agreement has been signed. We prepare this by default but the client has the option to use their own.
  • The client agrees to a kill-fee of 5% of the total value of the project in case of aborting a commissioned survey at any time for any reason prior to launching fieldwork.
  • Should cancellation occur when the survey is in progress, the client is obliged to pay – in addition to the kill fee – for the completed work up to the time of aborting the project.
  • The client is responsible for settling bank charges of remittances in settlement of invoices.
  • Late payment incurs a penalty of 2.5% per week on the outstanding amount.
