addition to collecting client feedback
through Quality Assurance Surveys, the
U.S. Commercial Service would like to
institutionalize client focus groups as
another mechanism to obtain further
client feedback and substantiate
customer service trends we are seeing in
the surveys. Client focus groups will
enrich the quantitative data of surveys
by providing a qualitative context for
the trends that emerge. The purpose of
the attached client focus group
questioning routes is to collect feedback
from U.S. businesses that receive export
assistance services from the U.S.
Commercial Service. In providing these
services, the U.S. Commercial Service
promotes the goods and services of
small and medium-sized U.S.
businesses in foreign markets.
II. Method of Collection
Recruit firms over phone using
Commercial Service domestic offices
(USEACs). Data collection will be
conducted during face-to-face interview
forums (6–8 participants per focus
group) by a client focus group
moderator who will transcribe via
computer. All comments from
participants will be anonymous

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
In accordance with Executive Order
12862, the National Institute of
Standards and Technology (NIST), a
non-regulatory agency of the
Department of Commerce, proposes to
conduct a number of surveys, both
quantitative and qualitative.
The surveys will be designed to
determine the type and quality of the
products, services, and information our
key customers want and expect, as well
as their satisfaction with and awareness
of existing products, services, and
information. In addition, NIST proposes
other customer service satisfaction data
collections that include, but may not be
limited to focus groups, reply cards that
accompany product distributions, and
web-based surveys and dialog boxes that
offer customers the opportunity to
express their level of satisfaction with
NIST products, services, and
information and for ongoing dialogue
with NIST. NIST will limit its inquiries
to data collections that solicit strictly
voluntary options and will not collect
information that is required or
regulated. No assurances of
confidentiality will be given. However,
it will be completely optional for survey
participants to provide their name or
affiliation information if they wish to
provide comments for which they elect
to receive a response. In addition, NIST
will not have electronic tracking and
will not set cookies for web-based
customer responses.
