Resolve the decision behind the request.
Changing forms, repeat groups and delayed sync can silently change the meaning of an export.
HOW THE WORK MOVES
Scope first. Traceable decisions throughout.
- Agree authorised connector or export access
- Map fields, repeat groups and choices
- Review required fields and field signals
- Resolve findings before reporting
Professional delivery uses the existing canonical project and case workflow. Independent QA and release approval are distinct decisions; unresolved findings remain visible.

Methods, assumptions and boundaries
GPS, timing and repeated patterns do not prove fraud. Connector availability and metadata depend on your Kobo deployment and permissions.
Source values are preserved; changes require documented reasons. Analysis needs a defined outcome, population, design and eligible records. Review may withhold an unsupported test or conclusion.
Read the RMA methodology →Start with context. Transfer data privately.
The public fit check asks for objectives, stage and constraints. Do not paste participant names, health records, passwords or connector tokens. Access, permitted data, retention and export/deletion arrangements are confirmed before private transfer.
Review data-handling boundaries →Is this a fit?
For teams collecting survey or programme data in kobotoolbox who can explain the intended decision, provide authorised evidence and accept transparent limitations.
Outside scope: fabricated data, guaranteed significance, thesis ghostwriting, clinical decision-making or claims of regulatory certification.
Before you start
What does the first enquiry commit me to?
Nothing is charged through the fit-check form. RMA reviews scope and confirms deliverables, exclusions, timing and price in writing.
Will I need a personal or organisation workspace?
Your team uses the existing Organisation Workspace with personal accounts and project permissions. A professional service is linked to the canonical case; it does not create a separate portal.
Can you guarantee an outcome or approval?
No. Findings depend on the source data and design. QA checks the agreed evidence and cannot guarantee significance, graduation, grant funding or publication.
Prepare a stronger brief.
