There are two web-based applications used to create and carry out a CVA survey:

1. The CVA project manager is used to define the scope of the project, schedule interviews and analyse results.
2. The CVA interview software can be used by interviewers or can be sent as a link to customers to complete the interview.

The CVA project manager can be loaded at https://portal.pims.ai/cvaproject/ (please note the final “/”). You will be redirected to our single sign-on login page. If this is the first time you have accessed the software please register. Once logged in the screen above will be displayed, click Create New Project to start the project definition.

The project creation wizard has screen to define the scope of the project, the key buying factors ( attributes), competitors and how the interview is presented to interviewees. You can also define segmentation options and additional questions as part of the wizard, or they can be added at a later date. Additional questions are qualitative or numerical questions that can be added to the survey and asked after the numerical input. For example, you could ask:

• Whether the interviewee expects the market to grow (and by how much)
• What areas you could improve on
• What additional services they think will become important, etc.
