Industry discovery

How does your work really get done?

We’re learning how teams in construction, hospitality and other industries work day to day, and where time, money and manpower leak. No selling. Your experience is the most valuable input we can get.

A note before you start

About 5 minutes, mostly tapping answers. Your answers save in this browser as you go, so you can stop and come back.

We are not asking you to find clients. We want to understand where work gets slowed down by chasing, re-typing and paperwork.

How to answer

  • Think about last week and last month, not a typical year.
  • Rough answers are fine: a guess beats no answer.
  • Skip anything you don’t know or can’t share.
  • In the few typing boxes, leave out the names of companies and people.

Your answers go to the Bizevora Technologies team, through the service providers listed in our Privacy Policy, and are used for research only. We never sell them, or share them with anyone else without your permission unless the law requires it.

Which industry are you answering about?

A casual chat over coffee is perfect. Aim for 2–5 people: project managers, site managers, quantity surveyors, subcontractors or restaurant managers. Send one response per person and choose “Someone I chatted with” in step 1.

Opening line

“Bizevora Technologies, a software company in India, is researching how teams in my industry work day to day. No selling. Mind if I ask a few questions? I’ll leave your name and company out of my notes, and you can ask for your answers to be deleted at any time.”

Six questions

  1. What’s your role, and how big is the team or site?
  2. What ate most of your time last week?
  3. Tell me about the last time something went wrong or got delayed. What happened?
  4. How do you handle that today (tools, sheets, WhatsApp, paper)?
  5. Have you tried anything to fix it? Why did it work or not?
  6. Roughly how often does it happen, and what does it cost you?

Do

  • Ask “can you give me an example?” and “what happened next?”
  • Let silences sit. The useful detail usually comes after a pause.
  • Write down their exact words for the biggest complaint.

Don’t

  • Pitch or describe any app idea. It turns answers into polite compliments.
  • Ask “would you use an app that…?” People say yes and never do.
  • Fill in answers for them or argue with them.

Ask before recording any voice note, and keep names and companies out of the notes.
