Custom Survey Service

You’re making a proposal to top management when your boss turns to you and asks: “Well, what do other companies like us do?”

Contacting companies yourself in search of answers would be time-consuming, and you might run into hesitation about discussing policy information. What’s more, if you want salary information, finding someone who’ll give it to you could be very difficult.

But CBIA’s Custom Survey Service can get you the specific information you need — without increasing the burden on your staff’s time. As a third party, we can collect information from companies while ensuring that individual data remains confidential. This is especially important when salary surveys are being conducted.

What is a custom survey?
A custom survey is tailored to address your company’s individual questions on regional or industry-specific compensation and personnel practices, or your employees’ opinions. It can be a survey of the average salary for a particular position in a specific group of companies, or what companies like yours are offering in the area of early retirement incentives or medical and dental benefits.

The custom survey includes only companies or the employer groups that fit the criteria you choose. You can choose companies within your industry, within your size range, or within your labor market — the companies you compete with.

How does it work?
First, tell us what you need to find out and we’ll work on determining the scope of the survey and which companies should participate. We’ll also discuss how you want the results reported. The questionnaire is put together with a list of companies for us to contact. Once you agree, we take it from there. We’ll mail the survey, collect the returns, follow up on nonrespondents, and compute and report the results to you in the agreed-upon format.


It’s as easy as that. To find out more, just fill out the form below, or contact Phillip Montgomery at 860-244-1982 or via e-mail at phillip.montgomery@cbia.com.

What does a custom survey cost?
That depends on its scope. Some elements influencing the cost are the number of questions/positions being surveyed, the number of companies invited to participate and the administrative time spent conducting the survey.
