effort to maintain a system of balanced organizational performance
measures mandated by the IRS Restructuring and Reform Act (RRA) of

Government agencies to survey their customers. The IRS' office of
Research Applied Analytics & Statistics (RAAS) is sponsoring this
annual survey (formerly conducted by the IRS Oversight Board) with the
objective of better understanding what influences taxpayers' tax
compliance, their opinions of the IRS, and their customer service
preferences, as well as how these taxpayer views change over time.
