OutScribe Transcription Services is well placed to support your organisation in its business continuity efforts and should be a key service partner considered when reviewing your Business Continuity Plans. OutScribe has a well dispersed contractor base who work from home, are set up and ready to further support your organisation meet the demands of a diminished or stretched workforce. We can assist with transcribing dictation and notes of interviews, creating minutes of meetings from recordings and copy type your handwritten notes. We could even work with you to have minute takers join in teleconferences if that is what you need. If you have any requests for how OutScribe can assist your organisation through this challenging period then please contact us to discuss your requirements.

Qualitative Data Collection

If you don’t have the benefit of planned strategies for the eventuality of a pandemic and the population being in isolation (not sure that would have been thrown onto the whiteboard during the risk management brainstorm!) then OutScribe can be part of your action plan to ensure your data collection can keep progressing.Phone interviews, Skype, Zoom and teleconferences can all provide solutions. Ensuring that the recordings are good enough to result in a quality transcript can also be a challenge but we are very happy to help you with some tips and solutions. In the meantime you can check out a recent article that has some good points about recording technique.
