The National Aeronautics and
Space Administration, as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
and respondent burden, invites the
general public to take this opportunity
to comment on the ‘‘Generic Clearance
for the Collection of Qualitative
Feedback on Agency Service Delivery’’
for approval under the Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et.
seq.). This collection was developed as
part of a Federal Government-wide
effort to streamline the process for
seeking feedback from the public on
service delivery. This notice announces
our intent to submit this collection to
OMB for approval and solicits
comments on specific aspects for the
proposed information collection,
DATES: All comments should be
submitted within 60 calendar days from
the date of this publication.
ADDRESSES: All comments should be
addressed to Lori Parker, National
Aeronautics and Space Administration,
300 E Street SW, Washington, DC
20546–0001.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Requests for additional information or
copies of the information collection
instrument(s) and instructions should
be directed to Lori Parker, NASA
Clearance Officer, NASA Headquarters,
300 E Street SW, JF0000, Washington,
DC 20546, (202) 358–1351.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The proposed information collection
activity provides a means to garner
qualitative customer and stakeholder
feedback in an efficient, timely manner,
in accordance with the Administration’s
commitment to improving service
delivery. By qualitative feedback we
mean information that provides useful
insights on perceptions and opinions,
but are not statistical surveys that yield
quantitative results that can be
generalized to the population of study.
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. These collections

Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
will allow for ongoing, collaborative and
actionable communications between the
Agency and its customers and
stakeholders. It will also allow feedback
to contribute directly to the
improvement of program management.
The solicitation of feedback will target
areas such as: Timeliness,
appropriateness, accuracy of
information, courtesy, efficiency of
service delivery, and resolution of
issues with service delivery. Responses
will be assessed to plan and inform
efforts to improve or maintain the
quality of service offered to the public.
If this information is not collected, vital
feedback from customers and
stakeholders on the Agency’s services
will be unavailable.
II. Methods of Collection
The Agency will only submit a
collection for approval under this
generic clearance if it meets the
following conditions:
The collections are voluntary;
The collections are low-burden for
respondents (based on considerations of
total burden hours, total number of
respondents, or burden-hours per
respondent) and are low-cost for both
the respondents and the Federal
Government;
The collections are non-controversial
and do not raise issues of concern to
other Federal agencies;
Any collection is targeted to the
solicitation of opinions from
respondents who have experience with
the program or may have experience
with the program in the near future;
Information gathered will be used
only internally for general service
improvement and program management
purposes and is not intended for release
outside of the agency;
Information gathered will not be used
for the purpose of substantially
informing influential policy decisions;
and
Information gathered will yield
qualitative information; the collections
will not be designed or expected to
yield statistically reliable results or used
as though the results are generalizable to
the population of study.
Feedback collected under this generic
clearance provides useful information,
but it does not yield data that can be
generalized to the overall population.
This type of generic clearance for
qualitative information will not be used
for quantitative information collections
that are designed to yield reliably
actionable results, such as monitoring
trends over time or documenting
program performance. Such data uses
require more rigorous designs that
