Questionnaire Management Guidelines | ||||||||||||||||||||
Goals: | ||||||||||||||||||||
� | One consolidated document to track all model and CQ changes throughout the life of the project | |||||||||||||||||||
� | Questionnaire always matches the live survey | |||||||||||||||||||
� | Easy and error-free way to submit CQ changes | |||||||||||||||||||
� | All changes tracked and reflected in one document (DOT will help) | |||||||||||||||||||
Basic rules: | ||||||||||||||||||||
1 | This questionnaire has to match the live survey | |||||||||||||||||||
2 | All changes to the live measure need to be tracked and archived in one document | |||||||||||||||||||
3 | All CQ change requests has to be submitted using this documents | |||||||||||||||||||
SRA: | 1) marks up changes and submits the entire document to DOT | |||||||||||||||||||
DOT: | 1) archives change request on separate tab | |||||||||||||||||||
2) implement changes | ||||||||||||||||||||
3) updates the document to reflect all implemented changes in the "clean" questionnaire - SRA can send to the client and use for future CQ changes | ||||||||||||||||||||
4 | DOT will safeguard correct formats - your next CQ changes have to be submitted using one survey document with appropriate color-coding | |||||||||||||||||||
