The questionnaire should contain no more than 100 attitudinal questions, 5 non-standard questions, 12 demographic questions and up to four opportunities for open comments. The sample strategy will be directed by the Designated Officer (DO). 2. Conduct statistical and trend analysis from results over a 3-year period (2016 - 2018). 3. Provide final reports in hard copy format (2 copies) and soft copy format (1 copy) and data analysis comparator tool in electronic format (licences for 3 people to access the tool) to the DO, 3 weeks prior to the results presentation. 4. Produce PowerPoint presentations of headline results in a house style agreed between the Contractor and the DO for up to four presentations. These presentations will then form the verbal feedback from the Contractor to the Authority. 5.
