SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Status of the Forces Survey
of Active Duty Members; OMB Control Number 0704-0624.
Type of Request: Revision.
Number of Respondents: 16,500.
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Annual Responses: 16,500.
Average Burden per Response: 20 minutes.
Annual Burden Hours: 5,500 hours.
Needs and Uses: The purpose of the Status of the Forces Survey
(SOFS) of Active Duty Members is to assess the attitudes and opinions
of active duty members and to provide key metrics to the OUSD(P&R).
Results of this and subsequent surveys are used to provide direct
feedback on key strategic indicators such as satisfaction and
retention. These indicators provide primary data on personnel career
plans, retention decisions, morale, commitment, and quality of life and
historically provide the ability to evaluate the impact of policies and
programs with regard to readiness and retention. The surveys are
benchmarks by which senior DoD officials can track trends over time.
Data from the surveys will be presented to the OUSD(P&R), Military
Departments, Congress, and DoD policy and program offices. Analysis
will include the Office of People Analytics' (OPA) standard products: A
tabulation volume (a set of relative frequency distributions of each
question, and cross-tabulations of survey questions by key stratifying
variables), briefing slides and reports highlighting key findings, and
a statistical methodology report. Ad hoc analyses requested by the
policy office sponsors and other approved organizations may be
conducted as needed and based on available staff. These projects take
approximately one year to complete, including assessment design and
development, fielding and administration, and data analysis and
reporting. In addition, as mandated by the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016, Title VI, Subtitle F, Subpart
661, the Defense Manpower Data Center, now OPA, fields a financial
literacy and preparedness survey within the SOFS annually. Results will
be used by the Service Secretaries to evaluate and update financial
literacy training and will be submitted in a report to the Committees
on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives.
Affected Public: Individuals or households.
Frequency: Annually.
Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
OMB Desk Officer: Ms. Jasmeet Seehra.
