What AFOS Delivers

AFOS integrates the full fieldwork cycle under one operational system:

• Field mobilization and deployment planning across all governorates and access contexts
• Digital in-person data collection using Alpha’s tablet-based infrastructure
• Real-time monitoring of progress and sample distribution
• GPS and timestamp verification for field validation
• Structured supervision and field quality control
• Audit-ready documentation and clean datasets prepared for analysis and reporting

Field Capacity and Coverage

• Headquarters in Ramallah and an operational branch in Gaza, enabling coordinated coverage and localized field management
• A large trained field workforce with scalable deployment capacity across districts, including hard-to-reach and politically sensitive areas
• Gender-balanced teams supporting access and response quality in household and sensitive-topic research

Supervision Model and Quality Control

• Regional supervisors oversee daily implementation and resolve field issues in real time
• Central field management monitors performance, sample progress, and coverage from Alpha’s operations hub
• Random back-checks and verification protocols confirm interview authenticity
• Continuous QC processes including daily review, automated flags, and structured validation prior to analysis

Digital Integrity and Traceability

• GPS tagging and timestamping to verify location and field compliance
• Built-in validation rules and skip logic to reduce error at the point of collection
• Real-time monitoring dashboards to track enumerator activity and completeness
• Data cleaning, consistency checks, and documented quality steps before final delivery

Designed for Complex Operational Environments

• Area C movement restrictions and coordination constraints
• Emergency and humanitarian settings
• Politically sensitive environments
• Rapid deployment requirements with tight timelines

AFOS enables adaptive implementation while protecting data quality and field safety.
