SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Generic Clearance for the
Collection of Qualitative Feedback on
Agency Service Delivery.
Abstract: NEH is submitting a new
information collection—in the form of a
generic clearance—that will allow NEH
to receive fast-track approval from OMB
when NEH wishes to seek feedback from
the public about NEH events and
programs. With this generic clearance
NEH will be able to garner qualitative
customer and stakeholder feedback in
an efficient, timely manner, in
accordance with the Administration’s
commitment to improving service
delivery by Federal agencies to the
public. By qualitative feedback we mean
information that provides useful
insights on people’s opinions of NEH
programs, events, publications, products
and other services NEH provides to the
public. This qualitative feedback will:
• Provide NEH with insights into
customer or stakeholder perceptions,
experiences and expectations,
• Provide NEH with an early warning
of issues with service, and
• Focus agency attention on areas
where communication, training or
changes in operations might improve
delivery of NEH products or services.
NEH will solicit feedback in areas
such as: Timeliness, appropriateness,
accuracy of information, courtesy,
efficiency of service delivery, and
resolution of issues with service
delivery. NEH will use the responses to
plan and to improve the quality of
service and programs offered to the
public.
For every customer survey or other
information collection under this
generic clearance, NEH will use the
information gathered internally only for
general service improvement and
program management purposes and
does not intend to release the
information outside of the agency. NEH
will not gather information for the
purpose of substantially informing
influential policy decisions. NEH will
only gather data in a way designed to
yield qualitative information, not
statistically reliable results or results
meant to be generalizable to the
population of study.
NEH received no comments in
response to the 60-day notice published
in the Federal Register on July 2, 2015
(80 FR 38235).
