Title: Collection of Qualitative
Feedback on Agency Service Delivery
OMB Number: 1545–2256.
Form Number: N/A.
Abstract: Executive Order 12862
directs Federal agencies to provide
service to the public that matches or
exceeds the best service available in the
private sector. Executive Order 13571
expands on this concept to include
recent developments in private sector
advances in internet customer service
technologies. In order to work
continuously to ensure that our online
products and services are effective and
meet our customers’ needs, The Internal
Revenue Service (hereafter ‘‘the
Agency’’) seeks to obtain OMB approval
of a generic Clearance for the Collection
of Qualitative Feedback on Agency
Service Delivery. By routine customer
feedback we mean information that
focuses on the awareness,
understanding, attitudes, preferences, or
experiences of customers or other
stakeholders relating to existing or
future services or products, but are not
statistical surveys that yield quantitative
results that can be generalized to the
population of study.
Current Actions: Extension of
currently approved collection.
Type of Review: Extension request.
Affected Public: This collection of
information is necessary to enable the
Agency to garner customer and
stakeholder feedback in an efficient,
timely manner, in accordance with our
commitment to improving service
delivery. The information collected
from our customers and stakeholders
will help ensure that users have an
effective, efficient, and satisfying
experience with the Agency’s programs.
This feedback will provide insights into
customer or stakeholder perceptions,
experiences and expectations, provide
an early warning of issues with service,
or focus attention on areas where
communication, training or changes in
operations might improve delivery of
products or services. It will also allow
feedback to contribute directly to the
improvement of program management.
