Proposed Collection Title: Generic Clearance for the Collection of
Customer Participation and Performance Management with NIH Programs,
Products, and Services (NIH), 0925-XXXX: Expiration Date XX/XX/XXXX,
NEW, National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Need and Use of Information Collection: Evaluating the
effectiveness of leadership, programs, and services is essential for
the vitality of any institution. Leadership review at NIH focuses on
the productivity of the IC, management of resources and budget
allocations, training activities, and influence on dimensions of
diversity, inclusion, promotion of investigators and staff (including
NIH Equity Committee (NEC) reports), and positive workforce culture.
Program and service reviews may focus on operational performance;
outputs, outcomes, and impacts; policy compliance, stewardship,
diversity, equity, and inclusion. Both types of reviews and evaluations
may solicit input from IC staff and leadership (IC Director, Deputy
Director, E.O.) and relevant program participants and stakeholders
about the program's effectiveness, leader, or process. They may include
comparisons with other ICs or programs, external benchmarks, and
outcome metrics where appropriate and applicable. This input should
provide meaningful information that can be used to identify strengths
and areas that need improvement. Reports developed from the review or
evaluation may be presented by the IC Director to the IC's Advisory
Council or Board, to other IC or NIH leadership (such as the Deputy
Director for Intramural Research and the NIH Director), or to program
participants or the broader public. Such reports may include
recommendations and proposed actions to address areas for improvement.
In public or broadly shared reports, any sensitive information in the
reviews or evaluations will be summarized and presented in aggregate.
This clearance will allow direct assessment and measurement of the
customer/respondent base for participation in and satisfaction with NIH
programs, products, and services. The clearance will also enable
offices to assess participants' experience and accomplishments during
or since participation and their preferences for existing and future
programming, products, and services. The information collected using
these tools informs and supports budgeting, program management and
design, program planning, results reporting, information dissemination,
and outreach initiatives.
OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized
burden hours are 3,375.
