National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS)
Title: Fast Track Generic Clearance for Qualitative Feedback on
Customer Satisfaction Surveys.
OMB Control Number: 0535-0261.
Summary of Collection: Executive Order 12862 directs Federal
agencies to provide service to the public that matches or exceeds the
best service available in the private sector. In order to ensure that
our programs are effective and meet our users' needs, the National
Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) seeks to obtain OMB approval for
the renewal of this generic clearance to collect qualitative feedback
on our products and services. The qualitative information to be
collected is intended to provide useful insights on user perceptions
and opinions. It is not intended to yield quantitative results that are
statistically generalizable to any larger populations.
Annual requests from the Illinois Department of Agriculture (IDOA)
to establish numerical measurements of the general level of
satisfaction felt by IDOA's customers and clients will be included in
this generic information collection request when funded by the IDOA.
The results are used by some Bureaus in the IDOA as part of a Public
Accountability Report that is submitted to the Illinois Comptroller. In
addition, the Bureaus are using the results to help guide their
operational management decisions, in particular for training staff
Need and Use of the Information: This collection of information is
necessary to enable NASS to obtain feedback in an efficient, timely
manner, in accordance with our commitment to improving the quality,
usability, and ease of accessing our surveys and public information.
This feedback will provide insights into user perceptions, experiences,
expectations, and provide an early warning of issues with service; and
focus attention on areas where communication, training, or changes in
operations might improve delivery of products and services. These
collections will allow for ongoing, collaborative, and actionable
communications between NASS and its customers and stakeholders. The
feedback will also contribute directly to the improvement of program
management.
Description of Respondents: Farmers, ranchers, agri-businesses and
data users.
Number of Respondents: 120,000.
Frequency of Responses: Reporting: Annually.
Total Burden Hours: 8,375.
