Today's clients require continuous market intelligence to make strategic decisions. Craciun Research Group, Inc. prides itself on providing market studies using the latest, interactive technologies grounded in the highest scientific research standards.

Alaska's premier, full-service, market research company, Craciun Research Group, Inc. has been committed to excellence in research design and analysis for nearly twenty years. Our work focuses on resolving complex research problems facing executives and managers in the public and private sectors.

The company was founded as Craciun & Associates by President and CEO Jean Craciun, and incorporated in March 1999, as Craciun Research Group, Inc. (CRG). Even before establishing the company, Ms. Craciun, a Sociologist, broke ground by introducing qualitative research to Alaska by offering the professional use of focus group research. Today, CRG is proud to host hundreds of focus groups yearly at their downtown Anchorage Focus Group Facility, the only state-of-the-art facility of its kind in Alaska.

In 1998, the company introduced to Alaska's business community the first and only Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing (CATI) Center located in downtown Anchorage.

Featuring capacity for 40 computer stations with professional interviewers, the CATI Center offers a technologically advanced procedure to gather and conduct large database studies.

The CATI Center's Survey System software benefits clients by providing more accurate, in-depth information while reducing the turnaround time to complete surveys. The software features modules for telephone surveys, digital voice capture for open-ended questions, and released in 2000 Internet surveys.
