Welcome to Opinion Research Specialists
We are a professional survey research consulting firm located in Springfield, Missouri. Founded in 1991, Opinion Research Specialists provides survey research and statistical analysis services to local governments, educational institutions, public libraries, public utilities, and non-profit organizations. We connect Decision Makers with the Voice of the People by surveying community opinions in a way that is statistically valid, non-biased, and representative of all residents — not just the vocal few. This ensures that the Voice of the entire community, county, or district is heard and that decision makers have the information they need to make data-driven decisions.
We are members of the Missouri Municipal League (MML), Missouri Library Association (MLA), Missouri School Public Relations Association (MOSPRA), and the American Association for Public Opinion Research (AAPOR).
