Burden: 3,096. Number of Respondents: 18,324. Avg. Hours Per Response: 5–30 minutes. Needs and Uses: ITA provides a multitude of export promotion programs to help U.S. businesses. These programs include information products, services, and trade events. To accomplish its mission effectively, ITA needs ongoing feedback on its programs. This information collection item allows ITA to solicit clients’ opinions about the use of ITA products, services, and trade events. The information is used for program improvement, strategic planning, allocation of resources, and performance measures. The surveys are part of ITA’s effort to implement objectives of the National Performance Review (NPR) and Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA). Responses to the surveys will meet the needs of ITA performance measures based on NPR and GPRA guidelines. These performance measures will serve as a basis for justifying and allocating human resources. Survey responses will acquaint ITA managers with firms’ perceptions and assessments of export-assistance products and services. Also, the survey will enable ITA to track the performance overseas posts. This information is critical for improving the programs. Survey responses are used to assess client satisfaction, assess priorities, and identify areas where service levels and benefits differ from client expectations. Clients benefit because the information is used to improve services provided to the public. Without this information, ITA is unable to systematically determine client perceptions about the quality and benefit of its exportpromotion programs.
