Research – Data Gathering
The more information available
at the outset of any research project, the less time the project is
likely to take and the easier it is to provide meaningful assessments of
the likely cost and time of research.
For each person, the following
information, if known, should be supplied. This is not an interactive
form. Please feel free to copy and paste the questions into your
word processor, and then type in the answers. But how you present the
data to us is entirely up to you. Most people simply use the questions
as prompts and supply the data in ordinary narrative format within their
queries.
