Eric, Category of companies: you need to name a trading category, like Distributors of hard-and software. Telephony category: need to group into retailers and infrastructure providers. Simu Ya Jamii comes under Telephone Bureau. Are you interested in "one-man" companies, like phone bureaus and equipment repair shops? IT Company must be specified and subcategorised: consultancy; systems integrator; software development; etc. Consider for survey tallying purposes that many forms fall in multiple categories. Must you follow the Harmonised Code? Cheers, Marcel Werner Quoting Eric Aligula <Jairah@kippra.or.ke>:
Dear Colleagues, Sometime back I had indicated that we are undertaking a Sources of Growth Study in liaison with the World Bank and IFPRI. I indicated that I would be sharing with you the draft survey instrument for your comment and input. The draft survey instrument is ready and is attached to this e-mail. We would like to hear from you on the following points: 1. Does the instrument capture the totality of the ICT Sector in Kenya 2. Does it capture all the inputs in an ICT Firm's productive process? 3. Does it disaggregate these inputs well esp. domestic, foreign, gender etc. 4. Do we capture the end products and the users of the end products of ICT firms well? Are the user final or intermediate users? We look forward to your incisive comments and additions as always. With kind regards,
