FAQ’s

What kind of research does DORIS do?

We partner qualitative and quantitative data to tell the whole story. Our rigorous data collection and analysis techniques lead to reports that are individualized to each client and are not one-size fits all. The challenges and solutions are all yours.

What can we do with the data?

After participating in our research process, organizations are equipped with information and energized to continue into the next phase. We partner well with architects and designers, because we don’t do what they do. Instead, we collect the people centered data, and they use our findings to inform plans and designs.

Why doesn't DORIS use sensors and surveys for my research?

Sensors can give you information on how often rooms are used and the duration. DORIS’ usability studies give you this PLUS the behaviors in the room AND can be tailored to collect data specific to your organization’s specific interests.

Individual interviews create an atmosphere of trust and confidence when we are collecting data. Having DORIS researchers on site, we can best understand the Why behind the How.

What's next?

It doesn’t stop here! We have your back and are ready to partner with you for the duration of your project. The next step is to ready your employees for upcoming changes to their physical space. We’ll be with you along the way.
