25. When collecting international research data, a transnational firm must decide on whether it will
undertake research at the firm's headquarters, or in its subsidiary office in the host country. This
decision is often influenced by the fact that: [
Data commissioned by the headquarters office is rarely shared with the host-country office
Research at headquarters is normally used for short-term planning and strategy formulation, whereas at the
host-country office it is necessary for tactics to achieve goals and day-to-day activities
Headquarters staff usually prefer a standardised sampling and data collection approach, whereas the host-
O country office is more likely to favour a customised research approach that takes account of the local
environment
